Project Information

Another quick shop cabinet- I mounted this one near my radial arm saw to clean up the mess that had accumulated behind my RAS fence (now I have room for a whole new mess to accumulate!). This one is made from some leftover red oak and red oak plywood. Simple pocket screw construction for the face frame and biscuits for the carcass. Finish is three coats of General Finishes Arm-R-Seal.

Same rules- had to be made from materials and hardware on hand. I had an old pair of Stanley butt hinges, a magnetic catch and a door pull in my extra hardware bin that worked nicely. Total cost: $0.

I wanted this one to have a bit of an Arts & Crafts/G&G look so I routed a small cloud lift detail into the door rails. To keep the flat panel look, the raised portion of the panel faces inside the cabinet. I hung this one with a French cleat system to allow easy relocation and to hold the cabinet off the damp cinder block walls to help minimize mold buildup on the back of the cabinet.

Thanks for looking!

That's a very nice looking cabinet and that little rail detail certainly dresses it up.
