Great article, Chris! AND, some real neat ideas. Gonna' have to try that on one of my projects. Heck, maybe I'll experiment on my shop cab. doors. :cool:

Thanks, Jamie...nice lil' write-up! :)

Great article...very nice work and design. These are the details that give cabinets and furniture that custom -hand made look and feel! Excellent!

Great article Jaime - knobs look great -!

Whenever we have embarked upon a construction project, whether it be a whole house, an office remodel or simply designing a room, careful and deliberate planning has always made the execution phase so much easier. Obviously Jamie's work demonstrates the same commitment. Again well done!!

Great work, Jamie. Thanks for the pics - giving me ideas for future projects!

Good artical. Gave me some ideas for the future.

This summer I made a small sharpening station. I did not want any handles protruding from the front any more than need be. As a result I came up with a solution as shown on this link

Thanks for the article Jamie, and thanks for the ideas. Nice examples, too. I hadn't thought of tapping hardwood for machine screws, but it makes good sense.

Vaughn,
I do it all the time, typicaly a 10-32 screw works well and I get the ones with the big heads from my local ACE store. Or use fender washers.

Excellent article. I thought about it, even had saved styrofoam. Now that I have some ideas, I'll go for it.
