Excellent lesson in laying out sizes on paper as well utilizing stock without waste, cutting rails and stiles in mass.

Hi Wes - Thanks very much for taking the time to teach your methods to us. I may have missed it, but your finished thickness is 13/16… what thickness is the stock when you start?

@dankelley9361 Жыл бұрын

Wes, great technique as always! What stock did you use for the center panels? Not many DYI’ers have you drum belt equipment, what would be an alternative? I’d like you to take us thru the next steps of installing soft close hinges & paint. Thanks for your hard work & effort!

I’m curious why you don’t use a dato stack

Thank you for the video! Can this method be used for hardwood floors?

Wes, thanks for the video on making shaker doors with saw table. Just assembled 8 doors. Contemplating adding some caulking where the mdf meets the rails and styles. Would you? Doors will be painted white. Thanks

What saw blade are you using? I’ve had issues with a flat kerf blade not cutting flat. Causing all the joints to not fit correctly. Great work as always.

I used a 60 tooth combination blade for all my cuts. Thanks for watching, Wes

Your vidoes are awesome....I have a question and no one seems to answer (and it may be just too simple but chlallenging). Cutting mitered trim the righ sizes. I can cut perfect 45's but here is a sample issue. Say I have a 30" square cabinet. I want to put molding around the perimeter. I make my first cut and get a corner. My challenge is WHERE do i measure from/to to get it to the end and the next piece ? I cant talel you how many pieces of wood I have burned throught trying different techniques. so if I want a molding to go around a base of that 30" square table...I obviously need it to stick PAST the 30. Otherwise it wont mate to the next peice so shoud my cuts be just 30" apart INSIDE ith whatever hangs out ? I know, hard to do in text but I had some L molding that was a nightmare and 3 trips to home depot...More wood....LOL. How about a video ?

@WoodworkingWithWes Жыл бұрын

Hi Robert...if I understand what you are asking, you want to know what part of the molding that you are cutting is the piece that you should be measuring. So, if you have a 30" cabinet then you measure 30" on the part of the molding that touches the cabinet. Typically, an inside corner or short points to short points. And yes, that would make an excellent video, thank you for the suggestion. Hope this helps, Wes

Wes I have a question. I’ve seen many folk on KZfaq cut their wood to square on the table saw with a sled. Why is the miter saw not good enough for that? When I’ve built cabinet faces I’ve always just used my miter saw. I thought I was doing good. But if I can do better please let me know.

@WoodworkingWithWes Жыл бұрын

Hi...a table saw sled just adds a higher degree of accuracy. Thanks for watching. Wes

Isn't maple kind of expensive if you're going to cover it with paint? Wouldn't poplar or even MDF be a thriftier choice?

@grizzlephotovideo 10 күн бұрын

Yes, those would cost less but Maple is a harder wood and is much less likely to dent or scratch.

Wes, can you glue a plywood panel without issues down the road with expansion and contraction ?

@WoodworkingWithWes Жыл бұрын

I never glue in the panel...only the stile and rail end in making my doors. Thanks for watching, Wes

Hi Wes, love your videos :) If I’ve understood correctly, you leave a gap for wood and use those spacer balls rather than glue. Except if you use mdf, then you would just make it a snug fit and still no glue? Also, is there any chance you could do a video on how to make a larger cabinet door, like for a pantry? Or is it exactly the same kind of process? And I’ve not seen you use mdf in any of your videos, so I was wondering if you recommend mdf or not? I’m planning on painting my cabinets so I thought it might be cheaper. Thanks so much :)
