Kinda craftsman n a little missiony, thats the kinda stuff I like! Very nice work, I like the divided lights and the way you joined the center horizontal in the door. this piece could be made in many ways with very suttle changes. great job overall.

Hey Woodtick, thanks for the comment. In the how to video which is coming out soon. I discuss some of the suttle changes that can be made to this cabinet including the location of the muntins. as well as having an adjustable shelves vs fixed shelves. I discuss options for the molding as well as the joinery for the faceframe and door. as well as hardware choices. In this project I used open slot mortis and tennon joints. But, I show other options as well. Thank you for the compliment. I am glad you like it. :O)

I am just finishing a similar cabinet. Though this one is for a bathroom and has raised panels instead of glass.

I really like your design, simple and elegant. I believe that is the best design for figured woods or woods with open grains. I’d bet that cabinet could really pop with birdseye maple or QS red oak.

I made my cabinet with curly cherry and curly hickory…both woods with lots of figure….a simple design was mandatory. Next time I will have to try one with glass. I would love to see one with mitre edged glass.

Your cabinet turned out beautifuly….A great build. I am looking forward to your video.

Thank you Reggiek, Yes a cabinet with a Birdseye Maple or QS Red Oak would look great. This cabinet is red oak with an oil finish. I love how it brings out the color and grain. Have you posted photos of yours? I will have to go look. I bet the Curly Cherry and Hickory (Hickory being on of my favorite woods) Looks great. I look forward to seeing it. The video should be completed and posted within the week. :O)
