Best books on making kitchen cabinets

[Mike Kees]

Just what the title suggests ,what are the best books you have read on the subject. Most interested in the books that you go back to again and again. Thanks ,Mike.

Danny Proulx's book "Making Your Own Kitchen Cabinets." His system allows the use of Euro hardware, and the looks of face frames. Boxes are simply butt screwed together, including backs. At the end of a run, you add an end panel to cover screws. As for durability, I built a set for local "Y" 10 years ago, and they still look and work good.

Thanks,Lloyd and Bruce. I was beginning to wonder if anyone read books still.

Here is a FREE book that you can download. I like it because it provides all of the standard dimensions and assembly details, but I'm not a fan of pocket hole joinery where it will be seen in the final build. I prefer the offset tongue and groove method used by Marc Sommerfeld but will use pocket hole joinery where it helps in the assembly and where it will not be seen.

Paul Levine's book on European cabinets is an excellent source for building cabinets of the European style. Built my first kitchen 30 years ago using this book and the final results were well received. A video is also available
