I am going to attempt to build a cabinet for our church sound area. It will be 60" wide, 36" tall, and 12-14" deep. It will have drawers across the top and doors. It will be painted egg shell off-white.
We got a quote on it for $550.00. So, I am going to get some experience at building, not only a cabinet, but drawers and doors as well. I have never done this, so any words of wisdom are welcomed.
I plan to use MDF for the carcass? And I don't know, oak, maple. poplar for the body? For the drawers, i understand birch or polar?
I did find the PDF download for "How to make cabinets" by Kreg. And am reading it.
Thanks for any input the you experts have!!!
P.S. I will document pics (the good, the bad and the ugly) throughout the build.
