    If you’re using side mount slides, I don’t see why not. Undermount slides require particular clearances. Side mounts don’t have the same needs. The other consideration is joinery. Will the placement...

    I like the idea of doing the end panels the same as the doors. I’ve also done finished end panels with applied molding. I built the box out of maple plywood. The outside corner is mitered. If you’ll...

    When I got my Sawstop, I imagined that I’d make the same mistake with miscellaneous jigs. As a result, I keep the edges of my jigs around 2” away from the blade.

    I don’t think I’ve ever used a...

    I’d remove the cap from the stringers. I’d also beat the jig out with a mallet or hammer. If it went in, it can come back out.


    If the surfaces/ length of the treads are irregular, you can make...

    Could you salvage the box by covering the bad grooves with a liner? Perhaps you could finish it as planned and cover the mistakes.

    In my area, it’s easier to find CVG Doug Fir at high end “building supply” houses than at hardwood dealers. Hardwood dealers might be able to get it as well. Depending on the quantity you need, you...

    If the bottom isn’t on the box yet, you might be able to improve things when you install it.

    The shelves in my pictures are fixed in the dados. I’m not 100% sure what you have in mind for the pillasters. You might very well prevent the shelf from tipping by using them. I had something else...

    In the past, I built several stand alone corner cabinets. I built them so that the face frames had “mitered returns”. The shape of the shelves, and the cabinet itself ended up very similar to the...

    I’ve made several sets of the doors featured below. Each time I made the same mistake. I can’t recall if I used a 1/2” or 3/8” rabbet. Regardless, the retaining strips interfered with the holes for...

    The base looks stout. What type of bit did you use in the router for the mortises? How tricky is the code writing process for the mortises? How good is the overall accuracy?

    I experienced similar problems with my Grizzly 20” planer. As others have pointed out, it might be the capacitors and centrifugal switch. If you’re ordering parts from Grizzly, I’d get replacements...

    Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you build your cabinet with a “spine” or without? I’ve done them both ways. I see pros and cons to both ways of building. When I build corner cabinets, I draw...

    My 2 cents.

    1-A seperator is reasonable. But, I’d hold off on a high end vacuum for a while. A larger dust collection system is a different story.

    I added a 3HP motor. I switched motors in summer of 2018, and the costs mentioned above sound accurate. The process of...

    I use the 20 tooth Forrest WW2. Overall, I am happy with it. It leaves a fairly decent surface for being such a “coarse” blade. It cuts 5/4+ hardwoods noticeably faster than a 40 tooth blade. Of...
