cabinets

Today at Marc Adams School of Woodworking I began my weekend class in making small cabinets. We are making small cabinets from cherry in a design that was featured in my book, Building Small Cabinets.

I was nervous at the beginning of class that the various steps would led to problems. So far the set ups are working well, and students have made great progress. We used a mortiser to drill the dowel holes in the sides, and I demonstrated how to use a story stick technique for setting up the drill press to drill the dowels holes in the top and bottom.

We've completed the carcass, and the joinery for the bridle joint doors. As you can see in the photo below, the cabinets are going together nicely.

Make, fix and create...
