Very good-looking cabinet. Video could use a narration, though… Like what kind of wood you used, which tools, what primer/paint… Good job.
very nice work
What do you cover the sides with so all the grain in the wood isn’t showing. Or do you just paint?
If you watch the video to the very end you will see that the ends of these cabinets will never show, that’s why I turned the good side of the end panel inward. If The ends were to show I would have put a skin (An eighth or quarter inch panel) on the visible end. The edge of the skin would not show in front because the face-frame overlaps the ends of the cabinets, so the ends of the face frame can be planned to fit the angle of the wall (walls are never straight).
Sorry about the narration. I took these photos to show the progression of construction long before I decided to make a slide-show/movie. This was a custom job on a low budget. I had to build lower than standard height to accommodate the molded counter top with back-splash. It had to fit snugly under the window Sill. The cabinets are fir plywood and the face-frames, door frames and drawer fronts are pine. I used a router to tongue-and-groove all carcass parts, Mortise and tenon face frames.
Sorry, I ran out of characters. I also wanted to tell you that the drawers are inter locked front and back. I helped with the installation (leveling, fitting, cutting sink hole and counter top). The customer added the finish to the project. They used lacquer on the inside and primer and enamel paint on all exposed outside surfaces. The cabinets are in a room above a garage (studio apartment complete with lavatory). I Hope I answered all of your questions.
