I have about two weeks into these doors and I still have to do the final sanding & fitting…
Details; Cabinet doors, 26”X36”, 4/4 QSWO, mortise & tenon with 3/8” square pegs, 8 per door (pegs are ironwood). Sliding dovetail muttons with walnut dowels. Mutton cross joints are half lapped with #8 screws at the intersections, (will use brass at final assembly). 18, ½” deep rabbits to accept the beveled glass windows. I still need to make and fit the ¼ rounds to hold the glass, 72 of them total.
It’s beyond me how anyone could make a buck doing this full time…
