Mike, Thanks for sharing the detailed step-by-step. It is an inspiration for this would-be neander, as it help to demystify the process. The result is beautiful.
Thanks Mike for sharing. Wonderful piece. The accent mahogany is a very nice touch. Too nice to live in the workshop. Will she be doing her flower arranging in the family room now?
Thanks guys for the feedback. I sometimes wonder if posting lots of pictures/descriptions might come across as self indulgent. Please know that’s absolutely not my intent. I’ve often had the experience reading Woodworking books/magazine articles where I can’t quite figure out how the author got from point A to point F. My intent is to hopefully illustrate the process because I know for me at least I find that helpful.
I’m interested in any suggestions from my fellow Neanders about latch hardware that works well on inset doors. I always struggle with this. When I look at all the adjustability that’s built into commercial grade hinges for overlapping kitchen cabinet doors (those things are adjustable eight ways from Sunday with screws), I think it would be great to have something similar (although hopefully on a smaller size) that would allow for that same adjustability to get a solid latch and also maintain the correct reveal. There is a invention idea for engineering minded neanders. Any and all help/suggestions are much appreciated!
Cheers, Mike

Thanks Chris, good to hear from you I always enjoy your build threads!
I guess the only upside of home quarantine is lots of shop time!? Honestly wasn’t able to spend some of that time in the shop I’m pretty sure I would be even crazier than I am now. Don’t know how everyone else is managing endless hours at home. Funny how that idea seems really attractive pre Covid – I guess under the heading “be careful what you wish for“.
Cheers, Mike
I definitely appreciate all the pictures, including the process pictures. I often struggle to follow written descriptions of processes. Oh, and nice cabinet too!
