Make the base the cabinet will sit on. Make sure it is level with shims and screw it into the studs.
2. Set the bottom panel on the base and using the Milescraft JointMaster and a 3/8” drill bit, mark and drill the side of the bottom panel and the side of the side panel to join them together. Make sure to dry fit them!
3. Repeat with all 3 center panels, making sure to space them evenly apart.
4. Using 3/8” dowels and 11/2” screws, glue and screw all the pieces together from the bottom of the cabinet.
5. Cut and pocket hole the plywood spacers to the top and back of the cabinet. Find the studs and attach the back spacers into the studs. (This will keep your cabinet from moving)
6. Build the face frame using 3/4” pocket hole screws. (I highly suggest using the Milescraft Grabber Plus for ripping your wood down to size on the table saw)
7. Using a circular object and 1/4” plywood, make a template for the arched toe kick. Transfer that over to your toe kick and use a jigsaw to cut it out.
8. Line up the face frame with the cabinet and mark for dowels. Using the Milescraft Jointmaster and the Drillblock + drill to attach the face frame to the cabinet.
9. Glue and clamp the face frame to the cabinet.
10. Build the doors. Place a 1/2” spacer inside the cabinet so the hinges sit flush. Using the Kreg Hinge Jig, place the hinges and screw them onto the cabinet. You should have an 1/8” reveal around all 4 sides.
11. Place 1/2” spacer on both sides of the cabinet where the drawers will go. Screw in the drawer slides and attach the drawer boxes.
12. Build the drawer fronts.
13. Using the Milescraft Grabber Plus, rip your drawer trim to 1/2” x 1/2” and roundover with 1/4” roundover bit.
14. Attach trim using glue and starbond to hold it in place.
15. Attach the drawer fronts to the drawer boxes using 1” screws, making sure to keep 1/8” reveal around all 4 sides.
16. Using a hardware jig, attach your chosen hardware and you’re done!
