This project involved building and installing some additional bathroom and kitchen cabinets as well as modifications to some of the existing kitchen cabinets.
In the bathroom, I added a wall-mounted tower with glass doors and shelves.
In the kitchen, I built a cabinet at the end of the island. The cabinet has a birch butcher block countertop, slide-outs on the left-hand side, and drawers with full-extension under-mount glides on the right side.
The modifications were to the cabinets on the back of the island. New doors were made to replace some glass doors and all the cabinets were painted white. Slide-outs were added to some of the cabinets and a new drawer box with docking drawer was added to one of the cabinets.
One of the challenges of this project was matching the profile of the existing cabinet doors. I ordered a custom knife for my molding machine to create the shape and the doors were made with miter joints instead of the customary cope and stick joint. My first time making miter joint cabinet doors and I was surprised with the extra work required. It was worth the effort as using a miter joint allows for some unique door profiles that are not achievable with the regular method of door construction.
