Large Built-In Cabinet

It has been a while since I put anything on this site, I have done a lot but mostly work on the house. This latest project is for the house but I thought I'd post it here as well, it is a built-in after all. The end of our mud room had a free standing cabinet in it and the cat boxes and our widow coverings, all very messy. So it was decided that we need a built-in cabinet at the end of this little hall way. I used good one side birch plywood 3 sheets of ¾ inch, 2 sheets of ½ inch and one sheet of ¼ inch,as well for the door frames I used 4 boards of 1 x 8 x 8 ft maple, strong and strait material. After cutting everything to size I cut in some dados and rabbits to join the sides and back. I use mortise and tenon joinery for the door frames and European hinges for the hardware. We are still looking at handles. Here are a few pictures on how things went.

This is why we needed a built-in.

Nice pile of material ready to become a cabinet.

Dry fitting one of the upper cabinets.

I made two uppers, easier to work with
and carry.

Just making sure it fits before I move on.

One of four doors glued up.

They look great, even just leaning on the cabinets.

A dry fit to get the height just right.

Now to install.

Base and uppers installed.

The doors fit great.

Bottom ones look good as well.

40 cubic feet of storage. 

A place for the cats, out of the way.
