    the true32 book is geared much more for someone who is interested in starting a cabinet business and - here's the key - NOT GOING OUT OF BUSINESS lol. bob buckley boils it down to a very systematic process in which he basically endorses many time-saving hardware like levelling feet, hanging brackets, european hinges/drawer slides, metal box drawers and advocates ORDERING the doors and using bottom mount crown molding. the book is just a foretaste of a course that he teaches for PROFESSIONAL cabinetmakers as the price tag is well above what the average woodworker is going to shell out in which he strongly advocates KCDw for cabinet design and a program that he invented that streamlines the biddnig process.

    it's an extremely enlightening read but if you don't have experience in 32mm cabinetry, the danny proul book and the cabparts reference previously mentioned are great starters although you won't get the full benefit unless you have a CONSISTENT way to drilling the 32mm holes with either a GOOD DRILL JIG (i've only found one BTW and no it wasn't veritas or rocklers!) or a boring machine like the delta 32-325 and by utilizing metabox drawer slides.
