Built In Shelves/Cabinets Updated

Here is a built-in wall of cabinets that the lady absolutely hated. She asked me if I could make them look better or rebuild them. I made sets of doors on the router table, added pieces to the face frames with pocket screws and wired in puck lights on a switch. The desk area is just 2 sheets birch plywood with 1/16” edgebanding with contact cement. The homeowner agreed to paint all of it to reduce costs.
This proved to be much easier and more reasonable than a new wall of cabinets.

Very nice conversion! It’s amazing what a little finessing can do.

I hope the first picture is the “after”, ‘cause that’s the one I like.
