In this video I give you an information-packed overview of how we build alcove cupboards including codes and descriptions of hardware and where to buy.

You will receive ongoing member-only content, including the 'fitted furniture masterclass' video series, and other videos and downloadable documents that will increase your knowledge of woodworking for fitted furniture, SketchUp design, and business processes.

Or if you just want to make a one-off contribution in return for a helpful video, you can buy me a coffee with no strings attached and you'll receive a PDF crib sheet for how to choose and use the most useful components from the Hafele Loox LED lighting range.

Check out our new podcast - first episode at the link below as a YouTube video, but see the links in the description below that video for the podcast series available on various audio-only platforms:

We buy most of our hardware from Hart Wholesale:
https://www.blum.org.uk/
(If you try them, do please let them know that it was me who pointed you in their direction! Great people, unusually knowledgable about hardware - Blum and Hafele products and more - and good stock including the more unusual stuff).

We buy Medite MR MDF and birch plywood etc from either Arnold Lavers or Lawcris.

We buy solid wood boards such as the 23mm oak seen in this video from Optimum Timber Supplies in Mexborough - you can see their little warehouse in this video:

Again, if you approach these suppliers it would be great if you mention that Alastair at Freebird recommended them, thanks!
