I had a feeling most of you would prefer method #7 because it’s the most “traditional” method. As usual, I’m a rebel and I don’t like “traditional” so my favorites are 1, 5 & 6 😂 But this is exactly why I wanted to share this video. My favorite may not be yours and that’s okay! At the end of the day, most cabinet doors look the same once painted anyway so go with the process you enjoy the most. 😉

Shara, we're talking about replacing all of our kitchen cabinet doors and drawer fronts so your series is working right into our plans for this year. I've done doors more closely to #7 but I like the idea or cutting up tongue and groove lumber and also using a round over bit to dress things up a bit. We'll probably do a proto type or two before we start a production run to see what we like. Plenty of useful tips which we thank you for. We're getting some warm weather here so the shop doors are wide open and the tools are starting to whirl. Hope your having a great weekend. Hugs for the critters. Thanks for Sharing!🙃🙂❤

This is an excellent series you're doing Shara......so helpful! I will refer back to it to refresh my memory on the different styles of doors to choose from whenever I make more cabinets. It's handy to have them all listed in one video. I can't pick my favorite because that would depend individually on what type of cabinets I'm making at the time. I can say my least favorite and one I would never do are those with all the exposed pocket holes on the inside of the door. It would be an easy door to make but even if used in a garage I wouldn't want all those holes on the inside even if they were filled. My eye would go right to them! Thanks so much for doing this series Shara!!!
@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
Thank you! I'm really excited about sharing this series and so glad it seems to be helpful! My least favorite is the pocket hole method as well.

This is actually the first time I've ever made one like that 🙈 I hope this video is a great reference for you in future projects and I truly appreciate you following along and watching. Have a wonderful weekend and happy building!

Hmmm. "Favorite?" That sorta depends on what the end use is. I'm sure that some "purists" will huff and puff that #7, the frame-and-panel with T&G, is the only "real" door , but let's not forget that this channel is all about making woodworking accessible for people who may not have 30 years of experience (or 15 minutes of diligent KZbin research 🤣) and a shopful of sophisticated woodworking equipment. Every last one of these options has a place, either in application of the door, or in the skillset of the maker. Okay, end of rant. To answer Shara's question, my favorites are #7 and #1; elegant-fancy and elegant-simple. And I wouldn't be able to do #3 successfully; I would be chasing the gaps because I don't have the eye for precision that Shara demonstrates week-in and week-out🏆. Looking forward to the next installment!
@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
Definitely depends on the overall project-that’s a good point! I feel like not many “purists” follow me because I’m kind of a rebel and I intentionally go against the grain (is that a pun?) and “break the rules” on things just to see what happens 🤣 so I think I’m safe from most of those purist huffs and puffs ha! But that’s exactly why I wanted to share this video: because there are tons of ways to make a door no matter if you’re brand new and have limited tools or a professional with a workshop full of them. Honestly #3 was my least favorite-I hate using pocket holes in 1/2” material. That’s the first and only time I think I’ve ever made a door that way 🙈 Anyway, thank you-I truly appreciate your humor and kind words. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend! See ya on the next one! 🙌

@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
Hi! I’m sorry I wasn’t clear in the video. What I mean is I run the board through so one side (like one face of the board) is against the rip fence. Then in flip it around and run it through again with the other side against the rip fence. That way, I basically cut two “slits” 1/4” from each face of the board. Then I can adjust the fence back a little to cut out what material is left between the two slits. The rabbeting bit simply goes into the router and I adjust so it sticks out from the bottom plate X” (whatever depth I need to cut). Then I just use the router to cut the rabbet. For more information on using a router and router direction, I have this post: www.woodshopdiaries.com/basic-woodworking-router-guide/

Hey totally random q, but do you have any guidance on how long something like a cabinet/drawers take? Just kind of curious since its hard to tell on youtube. Thank you :)
@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
How long it takes to build? It depends on a ton of factors. How fast do you work? How big is it? Are you building a bunch at once or just one? There’s no way to answer that very accurately as people build very differently and at different paces with with different tools and in different spaces. I don’t time myself, I work on multiple projects at once, and I’m filming (which makes everything take much longer). So I don’t really have a good estimate.

I keep seeing the blue sander, which brand and model is it? Surfprep?
@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
Yes, it’s surfprep. It’s the 5” sander

On door #3 im confused about why you used different sized pocket holes, they all go into 3/4 wood. That bit was cool, with the sizes on the side.
@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
Pocket hole size is based on the thickness of the wood you’re drilling the pocket hole into. Since 1/2” plywood and 1x3s are different thicknesses, you drill 1/2” pocket holes in 1/2” material and 3/4” pocket holes in 3/4” material.

Not sure if I missed it but did you mention what computer program you use for the measurements? Thanks.

Hi! I didn't use the program for figuring the measurements, but I drew up the diagrams to explain what was happening for the video. What's shown here is Sketchup.

Have you built shaker cabinet doors with a bevel face?

Raised panel?

Yes. Using the router bits to cut the tongue and groove on the rails and stiles. I am using the bevel bit vs the straight bit.

Hi! What wood would you recommend for the 1x3. Pine? oak? Birch?

Anyone use 1” plywood for cabinet doors? I find that 3/4 Baltic birch isn’t flat enough for large doors.

What would you say is the estimated cost to build a door if you have all the tools already?
@WoodshopDiaries5 ай бұрын
That’s incredibly difficult to estimate. How big is the door? What style are you building? What type of wood? Where are you located? Where are you buying the lumber from? There are a lot of factors at play to estimate the cost for a single door.
@michelleroseveare93785 ай бұрын
Ok, thank you. Just trying to get a feel if it’s something I want to try or not. I’ll take a trip to Lowe’s and see if I can figure it out.

Can I ask why people would prefer harder builds like 5,6,&7 when you can build #2 easily and the front looks the same to me. Is there a logical reason, like does it last longer, is it sturdier, in person does it look better?
@WoodshopDiaries3 ай бұрын
I think many times it’s an ego thing 😆 it also has to do with what type of wood you want to use and availability and whether you’re painting or staining. But personally, sometimes I want the look of the frame and panel on both sides vs flat on one side.

Would love to know which way is your favorite? The second option seems the easiest and quickest while still beautiful! Is it less durable though?
@WoodshopDiaries6 күн бұрын
I don’t have a favorite-which I use just depends on the project and the mood I’m in haha. I use option one all the time (it’s on my shop cabinets). I used option two on my parents garage cabinets (turned out amazing!). I used 4 on my mudroom cabinets. 5 on my sisters kitchen cabinets, 6 on my bathroom vanity, and 7 on my laundry room cabinets. They’re all great options!

The rolling shutter on the camera makes the doors look extremely warped when you spin them at the beginning of each section. Not much you can do about it I suppose 🤷
