OK Firstly thanks for the inlaying help.
Now onto the subject header. Building a wall cabinet mounted for a collection of dragon related stuff. Most of it pewter, but the rest is crystal, wood, china etc. So very heavy. Going to build it from conti board. General plan is to assemble the cabinet from four major pieces. The top, bottom and sides. These will be put together with cam bolts. In the back I will place two lengths of 2x1 to fix it to the wall before sliding into place a 1/8 sheet of pine board. After sliding in the sheet from the bottom I will place the bottom section of the display case and do up the cam bolts. In the middle of the case I will place a two supports so I can support glass shelves either side. This support will consist of two pieces of 1x1/2. Sliding glass doors will complete the cabinet.
Just a few questions though as this is my first cabinet/shelf/unit that hasn't been thrown together from mdf and screws.
Is cam bolts a feasible way to hold this together? Reason for cam bolts is they can't be seen on the outside of the cabinet.
Is there a secret/special way/jig that is used when marking and making holes for the cam bolts?
Is this a bad idea? The whole of it I mean. Is there anything I should change? I can't change the conti board before that is suggested as this is all I have to hand and the funds are dry.
Thanks for any advice.
