Day 7 – Sacristy cabinet

I started out by cutting out the door panel for the locked storage area. Luckily I had the foresight to cut the bottom of the door before glueing it up. It would have been rather difficult to do afterwards… Next, I finished cutting the dados in the sides. I had to re-purpose yesterday’s dado cutting jig. It worked better than I expected. Cutting the dados enabled me to do a dry-fit just to see if everything lined up. So far so good. I marked the locations that I thought would be good for pocket hole screws, then pulled everything back apart. I drilled out all the pockets and put it back together again standing up. This sucker is getting a little big. I might have to mount the casters just to move it around the shop.
