Category – Residential Bar Face Frame Under $25K
Project Description – Cabinets are all face frame construction with 3/4” plywood decks, tops, partitions and finished ends. Unfinished ends, sub ends behind panelized ends, and backs are all 1/2” plywood. Face frame stock is cut to length on a hitachi miter saw with a tiger stop fence, pocket holed on a Kreg pocket hole machine and assembled on a Kreg framing table. Panels are cut on a Felder format sliding table saw with a Tiger fence. Panels are pocket holed on a kreg drill and are glued and screwed together after being dadoed. Cabinets are sanded after being assembled so decks can be sanded flush to the face frames. Cabinets are finished with a kremlin 10-14 pump. The finish used on this project is a multi step finish utilizing dye stain, wiping stain, glaze, and shaders as well as including some distressing. The curved face was done with curved solid alder panel moulding on top of veneered bendy ply. The chicago rail is solid alder cold laminated. Unusual Aspects – The copper sheet metal countertops and curved solid wood chicago rail.
