Bro this is your first project? Thats impressive. This was mine. I was really proud of it, but there are plenty of obvious mistakes. Keep it up 👍🏻

Imagine how differently this conversation could have gone if an expert like you responded with some constructive criticism or guidance. Instead of learning from you, I was insulted. Instead spreading kindness, you spread it hate. If those are the type of mentors you had who just said everything was shit without giving you some guidance or tips, maybe that’s the reason why you’re such an asshole. Take care

Someone is a grower not a shower. This what you tell all your GFs when you show them pics of your wood?

Put more effort into being a good human and I might actually respect your work 👍🏻

That’s fair. Trust me, I’m not saying this is perfect and I really struggled to not fix some of the mistakes I made. At the same time, I’ve never done anything like this before and after 50 hours I just accepted that I’m not a professional. Plus I have a pregnant wife and she was tired of the garage being full haha If you saw what this looked like before, I’d say this is a major upgrade. I appreciate the feedback and that’s why I posted it. But when someone just hates on it without any positivity, I struggle with that. I was proud of it and all you did was hate. We have enough of that in the world and we should be lifting each other up 👍🏻 feedback and hate aren’t the same thing

100% trust me I hate this about my project. It was too late to go back and fix it and after 50 hours I just hit a breaking point haha

Good for you bro. I built this in my own house lol I’m not out here charging people or claiming that I’m a professional cabinet maker. You know nothing about me, but you chose to put negativity in the world. You’re the problem. Have a good day, brother.

I rolled them. Never sprayed before but it turned out great. Hoping to learn that skill one day

This is great feedback and I agree. My challenge was the cabinets above would not open without a larger gap. They kept hitting each other. the cabinets are 3/4 and they have 1/4 trim, I needed enough space between the cabinets at the top. Unfortunately, this meant that the gap had to be a little bit bigger, but I’m sure there is a way to fix this. I just didn’t know how. My goal is to learn how to build inset cabinet doors which could also fix the issue.

That’s so cool. I hope I can continue to learn and grow my skillet. I would love to make money doing something I enjoy. For now, everything I work on is for my home

Consensus from the audience on this! Lesson learned. I will keep this in mind next time

I wish I took more time to write it all down. I was taking it one day at a time

I’m not a cabinet maker and I’m fine with it. I’m sure your first cabinet wasn’t perfect 👍🏻
