Cabinet Doors
In planning for our kitchen remodel, my wife and i have decided to
replace our kitchen cabinet doors and refinish the existing cabinetry. Rockler's custom order doors are $$$$$$$, as are many others. For about $500 I can outfit myself with the tools I need to complete this job - rail/stile bits, raised panel bit, etc etc. I'm a newbie at this sort of woodwork, but i have experience in trim carpentry and feel confident that i can take my time and do a good job with it. I do have a few questions though. Go easy on me! -I'm assuming I need some sort of mechanical fastener for the frame of the cabinet door. What should I look at for this, or will a good glue like Titebond or Gorilla work? -This one really sounds lame... What thickness wood should I look at for the frame and the panel? It seems, from my research, that 7/8 is the most common frame thickness, but I can't figure out what thickness panel to use. Thanks for any help. I'd much rather do this myself (and accumulate some new tools!) than outsource it. Adam Atlanta, GA |
