I have a couple projects around the house that require me to build quite a few cabinets and wanted to see if I could get some help, opinions. The two projects are the wife's walk in closet and our motorcycle garage......I know, two extremes. Both of the projects will end up being painted and obviously, the wife's closet needs to look nice so I will be adding crown molding, trim, etc but the garage will be very basic. Here is what I am thinking, please tell me if I am going down the wrong road.
1. I plan to use MDF in both projects for the cores
2. I plan to use hard woods for the face frames
3. I plan to use wood glue for the project and a brad nailer to keep together while the glue dries
4. I plan to use hard woods for drawer and door fronts in the closet
5. I plan to use MDF for drawer and door fronts in the garage
6. When I need to use screws in the MDF i plan to pre drill and countersink
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for taking a look
