    Talking My first kitchen cabinet

    Finally installed this cabinet. I made it for a guy at work. It was my first attempt at cabinet constuction. I made it in two units because of the size, 5' wide, 7' tall, and 20" deep. His house is old, and the floors where not level. Made for an interesting time. Got it close, had another beer, it looked great.
    His wife was happy to have it in by xmas. Now she can fill it up with pots and pans.

    Nice Job!

    Nice Job Scott. Have any pics with the finished cabinet open? Are there sliding/fixed/adjustable shelves inside?

    Thanks for posting.

    Linc,
    All the shelves are fixed, and spaced about 2' apart. In pic #2, you can see the shelves. The top and bottom are supported in the front by the faceframe. The middle one has oak edge banding on front of it.
    His wife is going to use it for pots and pans, hope she has alot!


    What table saw did you end up getting? I was going to e-mail you to find out, but have been kind of busy. Figured you might have posted, and I missed it.

    Scott, the tablesaw research was for my brother in law. His wife is going to buy him one. Looks like it won't be for this Christmas though. Maybe for his birthday. The leader and my recommendation was the Grizzly.
