Thanks! My thinking was that plywood would be more stable and with 4” for the rails and style, more cost effective. Sounds like it is actually less stable if used for rails and stiles and I would be adding to my workload (the extra step to edge band everything) and then find myself remaking the doors after a short while.

I will need to find a source for birch hardwood.

Any thoughts on Paolini’s approach to making kitchen cabinets?
