This jig is super handy to align and drill the hardware mounting holes for knobs, handles and hinges quickly, precisely and with absolute repeatability. I have been using it for almost two years, and cannot do without it – handy for ALL cabinets! You can read all the details on the Sommerfeld Catalog page.

To enter this month’s drawing, all you need to do is send me an e-mail message to sandal_woods@bbwi.net; Edit to add: please include your full name and full address. If you have registered for previous drawings there is NO need to re-register.

Good luck to everyone!

Episode 22. The Krenov-inspired cabinet: Overlapping rabbets to fit the doors

In this episode I show how overlapping rabbets provide one solution to fitting the doors to the cabinet, while minimizing the door gap. I used a small shoulder plane to clean up the rabbet surfaces, to improve the fit and allow the doors to close with a nice, tight fit.

Credit for the overlapping rabbet solution belongs to Norman Pirollo, who publishes the blog The Refined Edge. Thanks, Norman!
