the mortises cut, use a roundover bit to shape the front inside edge of the door pieces, then head back to the saw.

Because of the roundover detail, the stiles need to be trimmed flat at the roundover to make the appropriate mating point with the rails. Follow Photos 6, 7 and

8 to first notch the stiles at a 45° angle, then trim the roundover from the stiles.

The tenons on the rails are next. Use the mortises in the stiles and the illustration at left to lay out the tenons, then follow Photos

9 and 10 to create them. Don't forget that the top and bottom rails will require haunched tenons to hide the groove for the panel you'll cut next.

The grooves for the glass in the upper section and for the panels in the lower sections are 1/4n wide x 3/8" deep. They run on the inside edge of all rails and stiles and on both edges of the center rails.

The door panel is best cut to fit the actual doors, so go ahead and dry-fit the doors, fine tuning

Cut the door pieces to size, lay out the radius on the top rail and create the tombstone effect. To do this, you will want to use a 3/i6" roundover bit on the inside edges of your pieces, making sure to run both edges on the middle rail of each door.

Set the saw blade to 45° and cut to the shoulder of the roundover location.There is one cut each for the top and bottom rail and two cuts for the middle rail.The area for the middle rail is nibbled away and cleaned up with a chisel.

Use a tenoning jig to remove the waste material where the top and bottom rails meet the stiles.

Create the same 45° cut in each rail at the required location, then reset the blade to 90° and complete the cut that defines the shoulders.
