x-no-archive-yes I am almost done making a knife drawer with removable cutting board for my mother. THis is my first woodworking project. The false drawer front is small, maybe 2 1/2 inches wide by 12 inches long and is 1/2 inch thick. My moms kitchen drawers have that ?raised pannel look. It shows in my book how to tilt the blade to 15 degrees and raise the blade to a certain height depending on the thickness of wood you are using but my wood being only 1/2 inch thick, it is difficult for me to figure out. Can anyone help me or would it look stupid to raise this small a piece of wood?
Also, I have the stain my mom's cabinets are. However, her wood is cherry and I used red oak. Will it look that much different? (It does not matter, just curious).
Thanks again!
