Hi everyone and Merry Christmas,
I am in the process of building a display wall cabinet for my daughter's (19 yr old) snow globes. The carcass and face frames are done.
I am about to make the doors and would like a wood frame with glass center to see the snow globes even when the doors are closed.
I can really use some advice on this part, as I have not added glass before. BTW, I will use the Blum euro style for face frame hinges with soft close.
Each door will be ~17" wide with 2" wide rails and stiles.
- What is the best way to make the inset in the wood to accept the glass?
- What is the recommended thickness of glass?
- What is the best method to secure the glass in place?
Also, If I use glass shelves (36" long) what thickness of the glass is recommended?
Thanks,
Rob
