17:17 Why boring is actually best
It may be mundane, but I enjoy the sped up milling process. It just reinforces the process in my mind.
Good to know! Sometimes I forget not everybody does this stuff as often as I do. Thanks for watching!
Glad to see a project that didn’t involve either slabs or plywood👍🏼 Love seeing a new course as well
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
same here, plywood is ridiculously expensive where I live.
Try buying hardwood in the UK if you want to experience payment pain!

Yeah, it is one reason why I don't really watch your videos, this caught my eye... just wish you did more explaining rather than basically an infomercial...
Another beautiful piece. And definitely not boring!
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
For future reference, when installing the cane, you should cut your square with a few extra inches from all sides, this gives room to pull the cane so it has a more stretched look on the front. Also, you should spray a little bit of water on it when installing, in order to loosen the cane, as it dryes, it tightens back up, helping with the stretched and even look.
This is great advice. I am going to use this some day. I love the look of cane.
Yes just like stretching a canvas over a frame, you want it to be tight and smooth.
Been waiting for a new Shaun Boyd video! Thanks, Shaun!
I know it's been a bit, thanks for watching!
Awesome piece. It might be simple, but this piece can go in any home and any room. I never would have thought to use the webbing. Thanks for the idea. I'm looking forward to seeing the new shop.
That's exactly what we were going for, glad you dig it! Thanks for watching!
Maybe I'm just weird that way, but I enjoy watching milling, glue-ups, sanding, finishing and everything else you're willing to throw at me. Watching someone who loves what they're doing and is good at it as well, just brings me joy.
Believe me, you are not alone!
Would love more plan-oriented videos in the future. your plans are some of the best and now that I have access to a shop having high quality stuff like yours really makes a difference
I’m not usually a fan of round overs, but I love the ones separating the drawer fronts. And the panels, evocative of vintage Fender tweed amps, are an unexpected touch.
After having discovered the foureyes channel a few weeks ago and having almost binged through it completely, I can burry my worries about not having anything to watch soon. So prepare yourself for a lot of viewing action on my account on your channel. Absolutely love your work and design, and your videos are just awesome. Thanks for existing, people like you make the world better ❤️
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Looks awesome Shaun! Looking forward to more sanding and finishing videos from your new shop!
Your editing, animations, narration, and story telling are amazing.
A master piece of simplicity, I hope to build one like this soon, will be sure to buy the course. Great video and even better piece, well done Shaun.
I love the quotes from expert woodworkers, it adds legitimacy to what you are doing. // I like it! There's a reason why mission style furniture is popular. It's simple, but often in that "cleverly simple" way.
I love the milling part of woodworking videos. It’s my favorite part!
I like it. Regarding the cane panels- have you ever replaced the screen in a screen door? Caning is basically the same. Make a shallow recess as you did in the video to allow for the door to be flush with the track and then make a deeper narrow recess (spline) to hold the spline that holds the cane taut in the panel. Cut the cane webbing panel about an inch larger length/width than the opening. Wet the cane webbing and the spline material. Lay the cane panel in place and use stick pins to position into the spline. Then insert the spline-a flat head screwdriver is a good tool. Let the panel dry and then trim the edges. When it dries the webbing will shrink and give a nice tight finished look. Staples aren’t your friend when using cane webbing- the panel will sag over time. ❤
just letting you know... i enjoy watching the milling process. it takes me back to the time in woodshop class in high school.
This may just be my favorite piece of yours, seriously incredible! It was amazing to see how the little details can make a simple design so complex and beautiful. Can't wait to see more builds!
Really appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Been waiting for a new Shaun Boyd video! Thanks, Shaun!. Your editing, animations, narration, and story telling are amazing..
Looking forward to the new shop. Thanks for the great content
that glue up aftermatch was brutal! Thanks for making these vids Shaun, great build!!!!
looks good, look forward to seeing what is important in your new workshop
This was awesome! As a small time woodworking business I find this way more relatable for a typical commission piece than something with a slab. Keep em comin brother
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I love this piece in particular shaun, maple panels are really quite something!
It’s weird but I love when the rabbet cut off shoots out
Don't underestimate boring folks who enjoy watching cool projects come to life, I find myself watching your content over and over, I always learn something and find your style entertaining, keep up.the great work, I do appreciate your content.
I really like this. It’s furniture I’d actually buy/have. Nice job.
Shaun, most everyone on here is a woodworker in some regard, or they wouldn't be watching. And some of us are fine furniture makers as well. What you call a "snooze fest", is pure entertainment to your audience. Beautiful piece
The man is back in form. Thank you for such a great video and build idea.
Spittin facts. The older I get the more I want the why. Instead of parroting things I want to know why so I can apply it to other aspects of building or improve upon what I was taught.
perfect work and great narrating!
Thanks Shaun. So good as always...appreciate the reality you bring to building stuff...and yet...continue to inspire...please keep doing what you are doing...I appreciate it!
Happy to hear that, thanks for watching!
That's a work of art! I love it! Thanks.
Smashed that bell, because I don't wanna miss a thing! Agreed, this piece looks good!
great job, cant wait to see the new location,
This is beautiful!
Another great video! Thank you, Shaun Boyd! 👏👏👏
Is simple but beautiful 👍🏼
I never get bored of your narrations and cleverness. Simplicity is definitely underrated, and yet a "simple piece", as you've demonstrated, can be the result of a melange of simultaneous complex and simple techniques. It's easy to be tempted into thinking every piece needs to be complicated. It's reassuring to see beauty in simplicity. Thank you so much for taking your time to create such an enjoyable and informative video.
Really appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Quick tip for cane, if you soak it with water prior to stapling it, when it dries it will actually shrink a little bit to get a cleaner tighter looking finish
Came here to say this!
I liked your base. May use it for a project I've been working on for many moons.
love the most exciting part of making drawer boxes... that flying piece is the kicker :D . As usual fantastic work @shaunboydmadethis , I'm so glad you're back on your own channel, it's one of the few unique places left in the woodworking YT world.
So fresh and so clean! The OutKast reference 🔥🔥
i came across this video. this was a really nice design and excellent craftmanship. Great video.
It’s difficult to imagine a better example of a simple yet incredibly attractive/interesting/captivating (I’m paraphrasing) piece. Then there is your narration that is well-written and delivered superbly. Purple attire (I’d noticed it), clamps on the floor (I get it) and shampoo protocols (I lived it). Nice. Being old enough to have read “rinse and repeat”on labels in the mid-late 70’s as a kid, I’d wondered if the everyone using it today really understands from where it comes. Finally, the guitar amp material webbing is extremely useful. I’d love to know how you find supply resources like that. I find myself looking for things such as metal inlay supplies or decorative metal hardware (joining two panels via decorative metal piece, for instance) resource. I built two vanities with frame and panel doors that may have gotten webbing had I known about your supply shop.
Sean, your Projects and you are both great. I love your calm and nice attitude and your way to explain stuff. The cabinet is not boring, I really like it! Thanks for good quality content! Toby
Thanks Toby!
I stream woodworking to a very small audience, but that "glue is on the peice no time to think about the camera" moment is so relatable
Love your work and your videos!!!
The piece at the end looks like a smiling face. And nobody should find a smile boring! 🙂
I like that, and agree!
I love it, a really beautiful piece ❤❤❤
Gran trabajo, saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
That credenza is smiling at me. I am happy now.
I rinse and repeat. Didn't know it says so on the bottle, though. Until now. Thanks 😄
Great build, Shaun. I was waiting for the plank at the end and you didn't disappoint. Bill
Thank Bill! This one was perfect planking size.
ahhh the lay down yep project approuved nice signature !!!
Nice piece!
Hello! I’m usually a silent watcher but about the shampoo thing, you are supposed to shampoo twice and then condition. The first shampoo is good at loosening dirt and oils and everything, but the second one is what strips it all off. So the rinse and repeat thing is correct! A wild amount of people don’t know that though, I think it’s really only something people find out from their hairdressers. Sometimes in salons if someone’s hair is really greasy, we would shampoo three times even. Love your videos!
Hi, Elegant simplicity is not boring visually. You have achieved an esthetic with this piece that has echoes of the post WWII period and the Scandinavian design school. The curve in the top of the base is especially effective in providing a blank or negative highlight to the piece. Nicely done. And another thing about « boring pieces ». Sometimes I want to make something that doesn’t stretch my skills too much. Currently I am finishing a replica of a Roycroft magazine cabinet that has no right angles, through tenons keyed in place, and a small hidden drawer with all compound angle cuts. When it is finished, I will build a blanket chest with frame and panel joinery, and it will be a welcome relief from compound angles. I bet it takes me much less time to complete, too. Cheers
Really appreciate all of that! I agree, sometimes it's nice to just stay in your wheelhouse and feel like you really know what you're doing. Gives me a little more energy to stretch my legs on the next one!
Ha this is cool. Cane webbing is an old style weave of material for chairs. Yes similar to wicker. It has it's place in historical furniture. Anyway what you have is perfect for that piece and this is also looks like material that would have gone on nice speaker cabinets considered modern like this beautiful piece.
I think it’s a really nice piece.
stoked. lovely. looking forward to more!
Thank you! More to come!
Hermoso trabajo bro
looks very nice
Awesome, as always.
great to see a new video Shaun! I just started building (a very slight variation on) the Benjiro dresser. Love your designs, man.
Awesome, good luck with it! And thanks for watching!
Placing the curve of the base UPWARD was an interesting choice.
Actually this video is interesting n making me watch start from beginning till the end…and the result of product is wow beauuuuutifullllll…can’t wait for your new video!!!
Beautiful piece Shaun. Love the video.
Thank you!
For cane webbing I learned that soaking it in water helps expand the webbing. This helps tighten the webbing after it's put in place later on for a tighter fit. Just in case it's helpful!
Thank you for those doors. I’ve got an idea in my head for a cabinet that needs acoustically transparent material - Now I know where to get it.
It's beautiful Shaun.
I like it. It looks like a giant boom box!
Great stuff :)
Muito bom, deu vontade de fazer um assim. 🇧🇷
I’m not sure what makes this video so enjoyable to watch the voice or the actual woodworking lol
Excellent!
It's not boring, it's graceful. Nicely done.
Thank you!
That guy does nice work
Super cool Shaun 😍😍
Hay Shaun, love the Chanel, I have an idea for a future project, how about a humidor?
Channeling your inner keith johnson with the "awesome drawer boxes baby" You provide the best narration on youtube for me.
It's cool! What kind of painting do you use
Excelent. Keep going.
I have made a couple of TV consoles where I used an aluminum frame with black nylon screening to insert as the panel in the doors. Works great for IFR remotes that penetrate to control amplifier, apple-tV, mac mini, etc. With a result of great home theater set ups . I liked the low look of your design. Get a all-in-one programable remote will control all your devices.
Nice! I haven't tested a remote with this stuff, but I imagine it should work, as well. Thanks for watching!
Loved the panicked glue-up aftermath. I'm all too familiar with that as well😊.
Yep, one of those things we all get to experience!
That is one beautiful box!
Appreciate it!
Awesome project Shaun! I could be wrong, but my hairdresser says it depends on how dirty/oily your hair is. She said if it does not sud(s)?) up then you should rinse and repeat and you should keep doing that until you achieve a nice foamy soap. by the way that's a sucky commute bro! I did two hours one way for a time and I dot tired of that fast.
Ah, ok. That makes more sense. I guess that means I keep my hair pretty clean!
Some of the tar-based shampoos for dry scalp still have those instructions on the bottle!
very clean and simple nice work!
Thanks Liam! Hope all is well!
@@shaunboydmadethis you too :)
I just happened on your channel and really love the look of that cabinet. If I saw that piece in a furniture store I would be very tempted to purchase it.
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Great design Shaun. Entertainment unit in our stores over in Australia. Regards One Handed Maker
Hmm, another plan I think I'll pick up. Cheers!
I guess there are at least 2 target markets. One is people who are not woodworkers (and so the biggest target market) and want an entertaining video. I’m in the other market of dedicated woodworkers (I’ve been at it for over 45 years) who just want to see other designs; other ways of achieving the same result - it’s just learning. I’m an advocate of veneered ply or MDF. Not because I like working with it but because I think both products are efficient use of resources. I know the glue that binds both is a chemical (and that’s not great) but, for me, that disadvantage is outweighed by the way in which low value timber is used for ply and MDF with minimal use of the really valuable timber - the veneer. I know this is not a universally held view but, at the very least, I think that anything is better than those pieces made of timber staves
Your dad jokes are on point in this video shaun! 👌
This piece of furniture brings me back to 1986 and my mom banging on the side of the tv smoking a cigarette mad because she can't watch The Price Is Right.
Looks awesome brother!
Great build. What type of maple? Hard? Also how many board feet as I am hoping to price out different species for this build? Thank you.
More boring and technicals projects please. Bravo Shaun, j'adooore !
sans doute classique mais c'est du bon travail et bien réalisé , bravo !
Class👍
Good afternoon! What push to open drawer guides did you use?
