These are my cabinets and the way that they are going to be laid out in my shop. They are all made out of 3/4” Red Oak Plywood. I got this stuff at Menards for aobut $48 a sheet. It is rated B2 and is really nice looking and stabel stuff. I have found very few voids in it. It sands real nice and finishes nice as well. I took the basic design from Norm on NYW cabinet series. I just modified them to fit me a little better. They are 29 1/4” tall for a finished height of around 30 1/4”. I am going to use 3/4” MDF and 1/4” Hardboard for countertops. I will then trim it out with some Red Oak. I have three double wide units with two two drawer units and two with three drawers. The face frames are made out of 3/4” solid Red Oak. Again I finished with Tung Oil. I need to build my router table next so that I can build my doors and drawers. I think that I am going to make them all raised panel. We will see. Not bad for one of the first things that I have ever really built. And I will vouch that they are all identical and square to the 1/32”, except for one. Thats another story. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

You have a nice start on your shop. Seeing the cabinetry in your shop makes me want to seriously reconsider re-doing mine. When I built my cabinets I did not see an need to make them “pretty” since they were just shop furniture. But I have come to enjoy the appearance that furniture quality cabinetry gives to a shop.
Nice job.
