Solid Cherry doors, video shows single pass on one of my auction bought 7.5hp shapers running a 6” diameter cutter at 8,000rpm using a slow feed. No tear out, shiny finish. The cut is 1 1/2” with a back cutter included.
How many of the cabinet builders here use solid 3/4” panels? These doors are pretty heavy, some may need three hinges. Perhaps I should have gone 5/8, just did not want to turn more of the pretty Cherry into sawdust.

Tried a single pass on my 3hp shaper, could not handle it.
