Why glass cabinet doors are easy to make

Great video. I am building a challenge coin display for my AF son . This is perfect.

Thank you so much for this video.. so informative and helpful. by chance did you ever do the part 3 "Choosing and cutting glass" it says coming soon from back in 2021 but don't see it linked to this or part 2

can be use also regular plywood this kind of project

Cabinets can display anything. Nobody but nobody addresses the issue of shop dust covering the French cleat items. Cabinets with sliding doors will solve the problem. No back to cabinet. Hand French cleat items in cabinet. Use lexan panel for visibility. Your thoughts. Better yet build one and make the video!!!! Thx Bruce. Cleats and Cabinets ( sort of like root beer and ice !)

Great video! Thanks for the guidance.

Tooooo harrrrd!

This is so helpful!

But wait I’m new to this & confused? Instead of going thru the trouble of making the 1/4” groove. Why didn’t you rabbit it to begin with?

I want to try make doors like this, just a lot bigger. Thanks for keeping this simple since I don't a workshop or much for tools.

What took me so long??

You sir are an awesome teacher,

Your instructions are so clear, thank you

Also, Go Wings! ♥️ 🤍

Do you have a beginner beginner series? This is too advanced for me right now, but I really want to learn and understand enough to be able to make my own glass uppers and also bookcases.

Thank you Stumpy! Your videos are great. I'm getting ready to make some doors just like this.

Gonna try make this to make a door for my dit viv!

Your videos always cost me money for tools I don't have. Good thing seems like half the links end up "currently unavailable".

Not a word about what kind of or thickness of glass to use

You rock!! Honestly, I'm new to wood working and I have made amazing projects so far that saved me thousands! When you recommended a tool, I never regret getting it! Thank you 😊

Last major project I made before taking database development job was scratch build kitchen, no chipboard, in 1990. No power tools then, made on site, similar doors with pine. Tenons and mortices in old way. Now retired, fixing up house, then - cabinets and kitchen islands as pay for itself hobby. This is well timed reminder

thanks

"Woodworking isn't done on paper." Actually, it kinda is, when you think about it... (jus sayin')

Great information.

Thanks James.

Damn. Never thought of this

I'd be terrified to try tuning a tenon with my table saw...it's the router plane for me. (Maybe time for a new table saw).

Well done. You addressed everything in a pleasant, easy to understand manner making me to want to listen more.

I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.

Great job James, really enjoyed watching your video. Thanks for sharing. Fred. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋

Thats not why I avoid glass (to whatever I avoid glass). Rather, I avoid glass because it is generally less labor intensive for me, and therefore less profitable. In other words, I would prefer not to pay out the manufacturing labor to the glass company when I can do SWP in-house.

Why didn't you just make the rabbet and not waste time making the groove? You basically made a picture frame, so why make the groove?

good how to video, personally I use the sommerfeld glass panel router bits, this allows me to do everything on the router table in one pass. I am not associated with them but I do like their bits, you should give them a try.

Good useful video.

Always informative!!!!

Ok, I'm not used to using imperial measurements, so why not use metric?

A question: Are there any modifications you'd make to the setup when installing a mirror? Oftentimes, they've got a bevel to the edging, so I wasn't sure how that'd change the process. Thanks for a great series.

Perfect timing I'm in the process of building cabnet doors.

Perfect timing! Keep up the good work!!

Really looking forward to this series of videos, thanks for sharing 👍

Great video, and also great timing. Was looking into making cabinets with windows. Although I'm taking the cop out route and using polycarbonate acrylic.

The ocean of Woodwright’s Shop DVD cases a shelf over are amazing. I had no idea there were that many discs in that set.

I always just make mitered door frames when they hold glass. Much easier. Run the rabbets all the way through and use my picture frame jig to make the miters.

If you're going to put more than 3 windows together, I'd recommend buying a point gun used for picture frame making. It's like a staple gun, but shoots glazing points into the wood.

WOW. This series comes JUST IN TIME. Thank you :)

Informative. Waiting for installments 2 and 3. In particular, cutting the glass. Thanks for the video.

Nice video. You explained got to make a stomps door with out making it seem like voodoo magic. What is the fence you are using on your table saw?

Thanks again mate

Why cut the groove then rabbet? Why can’t you just cut a single rabbet on the inside of the frame and skip the groove step?
