I like it alot but your hands come way too close to those spinny sharp things for my liking
A nice clean design. I think the white drawers are a bit low budget however - I would have used oak veneer on the fronts. With such a wide drawer and radiused ends I can see you had to use drawer slides but it does add to the cost ? 
I think the white is a nice contrast and the painted finish turned out quite well. the drawer slides are from "Blum" and together they cost €40. I'm sorry if I do not understand everything correctly and write wrong I do not come from UK
Absolutely. There is a lot of skilled work in that piece and thank you for posting.
Lovely, in an excellent sort of way
Is that a standard contact adhesive you're using on the veneer ?

This looks impressive! Did you stained the oak or just used regular varnish?

That's a very interesting video you've spent time on putting together - and I'd say is excellently done. Interesting design for the sideboard and the way you showed exploded views of the construction and how you proceeded to put it all together 
The only negative comment (sorry for saying) I feel I have to make is with the background music... got to be a bit too repetitive *for me* - and I felt interfered with my concentration of following the work flow... had to turn down the volume
Otherwise

Otherwise No problem, I understand that. The music has also been criticized elsewhere.The only negative comment (sorry for saying) I feel I have to make is with the background music... got to be a bit too repetitive *for me* - and I felt interfered with my concentration of following the work flow... had to turn down the volume

Although I haven't made any uploads to YT I've viewed quite a few and some of the "music" used for some are not always "conducive"... difficult choice trying to find something to suit everyone

not normally the kind of thing I am into but I like it! nicely made video as well
As above, I really liked the vid, it was really well made and i also enjoyed the music to, it was a welcome change from the usual monotone droning on.
The animation of the constructional elements was a good idea at the beginning. Showing how it was to be constructed and gave it an overall professional feel you just dont normally see in such vids.
Top marks from this camp

Music was okay to start with and I understand the reason for choice... just a bit repetitive *for me*

I hung it with cabinet hangers. You can see those in the animation at the beginning. In addition, I have a narrow bar under the board on which it rests.
Fortunately, I do not have rebar in the walls.
I hope you understand my gibberish english
