itself. All the cabinet pieces are made of solid lumber on this piece to keep it reproduction quality. The center shelf, top and bottom are fit into VV'-deep by ³/4"-wide dadoes in the sides. Use the diagrams to locate the dadoes. The sides of the cabinet have ³/s" x Vz" rabbets run on the inside edges for the back. Cut the dadoes, then glue and nail the top, bottom and center shelf between the sides.

After assembling the case, lay it on its back and glue and clamp the face frame to the cabinet. Check for square, and make sure the overhang on the sides is even. When the glue is dry, I simply remove the clamps and use a flush-cutting router bit to trim the face frame flush to the sides.

Head back to the saw to cut the second bevel. As you'll see in the photo, by cutting the return bevel on the first edge you've provided a bearing surface for the rip fence, rather than let the bevel slip under the fence,messing up the cut.
