I did my doors using a circular saw and a wood block to slide the saw along after carefully measuring the where the panel will come out.

I did this and messed up my kitchen cabinets. So my wife got mad at me and then I had to remodel the kitchen $5,000 Later and I just wanted to spend $32 for the glass.

Omg no!! I’m so scared I’ll mess up too ahhh it’s always a good idea to just get scrap wood and practice with that!

It looks to me like the silicone is used here only to help stabilize the glass since the points are holding it in place. I've seen it done where first you put in a bead of silicone, then lay the glass (being sure not to use too much silicone and have it ooze to visible surface on opposite side), then bed the glass in it, then put another bead of silicone down. You'd still need retention clips or glazing points though.

So you open the cabinet door and you see the edge of the glass and a messy seam of silicone? How do you make it look finished?

Why not add a nice small trim to go around glass and will also help secure the glass in place would be a better option to me. Maybe take more work but looks better and keeps glass in place from coming out.

I would prefer using tempered glass which is more expensive.

What glass options can you choose from? Typically what type of glass is used in kitchen cabinetry? Also how do you get these glasses? Custom ordered made? Where and how?

Why even cut out the panel? Just route the edge with the pattern bit, and the panel will pop out. What happened near the corners? At 3:24, there's some rough looking edges!

What bit would you use exactly in order to do that?

@rosemaryr.long-morgan9704 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for sharing I have a china cabinet which has 2 inset glass doors plus a framed glass panel on either side. I would like to add a glass panel on side of cabinet (leaving area on frame for shelf pegs of course) to allow more light in and show displayed objects (car models etc) from the side. Would this compromise strength of cabinet and would just adding a plexiglass backing be a better option, or do You have a better idea, thanks

What type of bit did you use on the router?

I had to watch this carefully a couple times but think I figured it out. It looks to me like he used a straight cutting bit set to the right depth (drilled a starting hole to drop it in) and then he also used a router edge guide (very hard to see this) so that he cut it in a straight line. Not everybody has a router edge guide. But you either use that or build an elaborate template frame (and I think the template would way to hard to pull off). You absolutely cannot cut a straight line w/ a straight cutting bit without something to guide it (ironically).

He did not show how to measure for the insert. That is probably the trickiest part!

What about the corners? A straight router bit will still leave rounded corners. I have an antique dutch door that I want to put a window in without trying to disassemble the door. I can cut out the panel do all the work needed I just do not see how the work done in this video can make 90* corners for the window???
