Howdy. My name is notbob, I run a Linux desktop, and I am a new member cuz my kitchen drawers are falling apart and I need to learn how to fix them. Since the entire house (mfd home) is fiberboard and long abuse by my late mother has it falling apart, it's time to learn some decent cabinetry.
I know jes enough about general carpentry that I'm totally fearless. Spent 8 mos framing houses. Boy, can I ever neaten up a lumber pile! Plus, as a former machinist and my late brother having been a master carpenter, I've already got a lot of those tools.
Anyway, already discovered some joinery (dove, box, biscuit, etc) and learned which tools my buddy already has (biscuit jointer, router) ....and which I need to buy (router table, dovetail jig, etc).
I can see me doing a new face frame and drawers outta (Baltic?) birch and some other cabinetry stuff. Looks like big fun. I'm looking forward to posting, here. If I get good enough, might try a guitar spkr cabinet with all dovetail joinery, like I usta have (mesa boogie mk II).
