TAVz.

When it conies time to actually cut out the shelves, unless you've got a really big shop, your table saw probably won't be large enough for a job like this. Instead, use a straightedge clamped to the board as a guide for the hand-held circular saw. Tlie curved front edge of the three upper shelves is cut with a jig saw, and the router table and a bull-nose or round-over bit is used to establish the 34

bullnose molding on that same curved edge. The router equipped with a Vb in. corebox bit and the edge guide is used to cut the optional plate groove in the three upper shelves.

Assembly Games

In certain ways, our corner cupboard is analogous to a boat. Using this boat analogy, the back would be the keel, the

shelves are the ribs, and the sides are the planks. Though we wouldn't advise carrying our analogy loo far (the cabinet is hardly seaworthy!), even in its assembly sequence, the cupboard's resemblance lo standard boat construction methodology is remarkable. As with boat construction, you'll want a helper for Ihe assembly.
