Kitchen fitting is the mother of invention.

Birch ply looks v good.
Did you cut that yourself?
I would recommend going around all the edges with a laminate trimmer with a bearing chamfer bit - if you haven’t already (they look pretty sharp) this will make them much longer lasting.I’m after a rotary cut Douglas fir faced ply at a decent price to make drawer and door fronts for my bathroom if anyone has a lead.

Interesting, I'm definitely keen to make them longer lasting. What kind of profile would that leave?
After much wrangling about the cutting I got them CNC'd. Partly as I thought it would save time and partly because the work top cost a small fortune and I couldn't face the doors not doing the work top justice as it were.
In the end there were other issues that slowed the project down, and if I was doing it again I would just spend a bit more money on a nice track saw. I've messed up a couple of measurements so will need to cut some new doors anyway.

I’ve been getting douglas fir throughout from Richard Russell. If it’s not that many drawer fronts you may find going for solid timber works out cheaper.

Where there's a will there's a clamping force.
Kitchen starting to look like one at last.
