I'm building cabinets for my kitchen and the design calls for some 45
degree corner cabinets. These will go at the end of a line of cabinets
(both base and wall). I'm using soft maple face frame construction and
plywood boxes. Before I re-invent the wheel, can you offer any
tips/tricks on the face frame construction for this type of cabinet and
attaching the carcass to the face frame? Is the face frame for a corner
cabinet the same as a standard cabinet, just cut the dadoes at a certain
angle?

I would build the last regular and 45 degree cabinet as one unit. You can
easily make the 45 degree transition by using a 45 degree edge butted up
to a 90 degree edge and pocket holing the pieces together. The result
will hide the corner joint of the face frame. I can post a picture of a
similar setup if you like.


I'd like to see that if it's not too much trouble...
