In this video I build two drawer units as a base for my desk in a mid century modern feel using some salvaged timber that had a woodworm problem, some nice sapele boards and some birch plywood for my DIY dream desk build.

Nice work. Norm Abraham would be proud of you!!

@kevin-the-carrot 2 года назад

Its coming together Keith.Really will look something.I like how you incorporate different wood types and spraying a finish instead of a brush finish gives it a bit of class.Looking forward to seeing the 3rd video with you installing.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thank you!

@mikedeman5351 2 года назад

Keith, this is a very informative video. I love the way you don't edit out 'issues', because that helps all of us see where a problem can occur. Regarding the tear-out you mention at 2:54, if you had marked the line of the cut and then scored it with a Stanley knife (just through the surface veneer), would that have solved the tear-out problem? I love the way the 'perfectionist in you' made you fill in the router cut :) I like the way the joinery came together so well. All in all, I think this is shaping up to be one of the best builds, perhaps the best build, you've ever done.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

thank you Mike. Yes scoring would be a good idea, but a lot of hassle compared to just gluing the legs on over the edge

@pitsnipe5559 2 года назад

Love the contrast between the sepelie (sp) and birch.

@ianvicedomini2648 2 года назад

Looking very official Keith. The mixture of timber makes it stand out really nicely mate 👍🏻👍🏻

@WeekendShedHead 2 года назад

Top job as always Keith 👏👍

@tonyworkswood 2 года назад

Enjoyed the build Keith. Very 1960's retro looking with the square design and contrasting timbers, the spray varnish finish brought it to life. Tony

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

thanks so much Tony

@terristroh3965 2 года назад

Excited to see the finished project !!

@paulstannett465 2 года назад

Looking fab Rag n Bone. I agree - these are looking really good!

@smallspacecreation5768 2 года назад

Looking really good Keith 👍👍👍

@fraforgt-350r2 2 года назад

You should get in touch with some builders because our previous builders had lots of old oak cladding and sleepers which they were going to skip. We’ve used it all up now for various builds

@billparrish4385 2 года назад

4:33 Good choice for this application, since it'll be hidden, but where the edge of the backer was more visible, one method I've used to minimize the protruding backer was to use a bevel bit on the router. The eyeline goes past the edge of the side piece without seeing the backer in all angles except where the person is standing to the side of the piece near the wall.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Good tip!

@leekent7493 2 года назад

Lovely contrast between legs and carcasses. Great desk this is going to be.

@neilf4128 2 года назад

Great Job Keith. Looks really good. I think the wood might be Teak. But I can see only so much on video.

@29lookingood 2 года назад

They turned our really nice 👌🏾👍🏾💙

Your wife should be happy with her new desk!

@outoftheburrough 2 года назад

Looks good, maybe wax the hanging rail tops for a bit of extra glide

@dimarc67 2 года назад

Keith, Another great build and fine piece of story-telling. Always enjoyable! BTW, you're "mystery hardwood" and plywood faces both look a lot like Lauan ("lah-wahn"), also known as Meranti and/or Philippine Mahogany (only for the color). Those names are used loosely for a handful of species, but they're commonly used for plywood face veneers and general-purpose lumber (crating, etc.) here in the States.

@rubymimosa 2 года назад

I’d be chuffed too! Good golly that looks amazing!

@josephtwilley7187 Год назад

I recently made a sapeli and hard maple cutting board. It turned out amazing.

@karlpopewoodcraft 2 года назад

Mate I think this is going to be your best build yet, very classy. Loads of nice wood and joinery just looks so nice.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thanks mate!

Thanks Mandy!

@davidsneddon2242 2 года назад

Keith your attention to detail is incredible. The accuracy of build and seemingly effortless construction technique you employ is a joy to behold. Excellent mate. Can’t wait to see the finished article.

thank you David

@TheHkluivert 2 года назад

I am finishing my first drawer cabinet with metal drawer slides and I am jealous; yours look so much better 🙂

@johngrubb1590 2 года назад

When it's done it's going to look sweet, nice build.👍

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thanks 👍

@paulrowley71 2 года назад

Good save on the router tear out, Keith. I couldn’t see that after the glue up. I’ve done the same myself a couple of times. Those drawer units are looking lovely with the finish on.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

thank you Paul!

@ChKo1995 2 года назад

That combination of dark hardwood with light coloured plywood looks absolutely beautiful Keith! I really like the mid-century feel of those drawer units. I'm currently making three desks for a client myself and - as a beginner - i'm pleased to see that my design is quite comparable with yours. That gives me confidence! Keep up the good work. I'm very curious to what the desk is going to look like when it's completely assembled!

@davidroth7586 2 года назад

You're best work so far mate stunning work👍👍👍👍👍

@32dras 2 года назад

Those drawer boxes/legs look so sweet, contrast between sapele and birch ply lift it up and you pull up wood grains both on sapele and ply like you made them from special wood delivery and not from offcuts and ply from Marketplace. Great job! Apropo that router tear up, we're just human, we all make mistakes, you're just honest and show them, some others cut them out from final video.

@IEnjoyCreatingVideos 2 года назад

Great work on the desk Keith! Thank you for sharing the videos with us!💖👍😎JP

@pteddie6965 2 года назад

I love the design of the drawer units. They are beautiful. Thanks for the video.

@bigpete4227 2 года назад

Some of your finest and most stylish work yet.

@PeterOConnl 2 года назад

I think this is the nicest thing youve made imo. Really expertly done, beautiful?

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

thank you

@markwatters6875 2 года назад

Mate, the three sections you have made so far are brilliant. So looking forward to seeing the finished desk. Thank you for the videos.

@DIYDuBItYourself 2 года назад

I have to agree with you that sapele is one of my favorite species of wood too. As soon as the finish hits it, pops like no other. Love the design so far, can’t wait to see it all together!

@lauram9076 2 года назад

Hello Keith! The desk is coming along beautifully, I can understand why you are so happy with it! I've noticed how you have really developed your patience level over the last year. You are taking more time for details and not just trying to get the job done, it really shows in the end results. Keep up the good work!

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thanks so much!

@SteveMonk1956 2 года назад

@clydedecker765 2 года назад

@nbmufc94 2 года назад

Wow you are so talented Keith. A master of woodworking.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thank you! Definitely not a master though !

@robertbamford8266 2 года назад

Contrasting wood 👍. Outstanding design. Having spent an excessive amount of time and energy salvaging redwood lumber to rebuild a fence, I’ve decided keeping it out of a landfill and saving money are the real benefits. Time for another gallon of Copper Green.

@watcherofwatchers 2 года назад

Looks amazing as expected, Keith!

@paulprescott7913 2 года назад

Hello Keith my favourite bit of this vid was the uprights that you made. As ever your content is brilliant. And those drawer units look the dogs.

@benjaqsonworkshop9974 2 года назад

Definitely some of your best cabinet-making work Keith. The saddle joints and placement of the leg frames are beautiful design choices. I'm eager to see where you go with the next stage.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thank you very much!

@theneone111 2 года назад

You’re very talented. Nice video. Thank you.

@c.a.g.1977 2 года назад

It's coming along quite nicely, Keith! Seems to me one can actually hear it in your voice how much you are liking this build!

@tomjones6479 2 года назад

Great video. I like to cut my back in before assembly either with a router or the table saw.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thanks 👍

@TigerCarpenter 2 года назад

it's starting to look like a piece of art I look forward to seeing the final result

@JamesManCave 2 года назад

They are some mighty fine looking drawers, the finish on them really brought them to life! For years my parents had 1980's style sapele veneered doors in their house, didn't look anywhere near as nice as that sapele though!

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Cheers James!

@everthauglin5756 2 года назад

Beautiful!

@negotiableaffections 2 года назад

It looks superb, Keith and well done on those sadle joints and mitres - you can't beat a well planned and built jig, its just makes a world of difference to the construction.

@philipwilliams8114 2 года назад

I love the table leg joints and jig. Genius idea and brilliantly executed 👍

@everybodylovesducksauce7158 2 года назад

looking good!!! thanks so much for the video!

@cakepanda 2 года назад

absolutely fantastic Keith! I tend to cut the rebate on the table saw before assembly as the router can easily jump and ruin a piece. Cannot wait to see the end result.

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Cheers! Yes that would have been a good idea

@philippe9280 2 года назад

I had an old but small piece of furniture with active woodworm. I was able to store it for a week in a -20c freeze cell. This killed off all the woodworm. No shrinking of the wood. At least nothing I could see or noticed.

@celineellis 2 года назад

Really enjoying this desk series. And loving the use of different woods. Also, really great to see your confidence in your work growing as well as your confidence talking to the camera! I rewatched a couple of older vids recently to review for an upcoming project and it’s awesome to see how far the channel has come!

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thank you very much!

@MrJono1999 2 года назад

I have been watching your woodwork channel for a number of years now. I always enjoy your videos. I can really see how your skills have progressed in this video. I hope I can match your precision on those mitre joints then next time I have to cut some. The desk is looking great with some good design ideas. One suggestion, next time, cut your rebates on your table saw before making your cabinets . That is what I have seen the Americans do a lot of the time. (I have to be honest I have not tried this myself, but it seems to make sense so I will have to try it out). Anyway, cracking job. I am looking forward to seeing the finished article.

@TheLedger22 2 года назад

Hi Keith i do drawers all the time in my work and for runners with overall width of 12.7mm each i always allow 27mm, always works and i screw the main larger part of the runner in the big holes so they have a bit of flex to move side to side, ive installed 100s of drawers and this never fails

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

Thank you, good to know for future!

@mattclark7700 2 года назад

@RagnBoneBrown 2 года назад

thank you Matt

@humansaremortal3803 2 года назад

look nice

@nickh2519 2 года назад

Coming along nicely! Could you have hot-glued a sacrificial piece of wood along the edges where you suffered the tearout, and continued with routing the rebate? All the best

@joohnny59 2 года назад

Looking good, can't wait for the final reveal. Also I'm in the UK and find great difficulty in getting a supply of goods hardwood. Yes I know of a few places but unless you want to travel a long way they are well spaced down south. Maybe your next RU-vid?
