My wife and I are thinking of redoing the kitchen. We want to reface the cabinet frames and build new cabinet doors. Shaker style.
We would like to get some opinions on how to do this. This is what we had planned.
- Use 1/4 inch red oak ply to do the cabinet ends
- Use 1/2 solid red oak to the front of the frames
- Use 1x solid red oak for the cabinet door frames
- Use 1/2 inch solid red oak for the panels (rabbit all sides to 1/4 inch thick)
All door panels will be dry fit then taken apart to stain before full assembly.
Is there anything wrong with this plan or are we missing something?
Thanks Chris
