  • I call it a panel saw.
    ;-)

    I wouldn't trust either one of those saws or the person operating it to achieve the accuracy needed for a kitchen with 3 mm door gaps.

    I've made a few kitchens using HPL (high pressure laminate ie. Formica) on birch ply for the doors with a mix of Ikea and custom carcasses.

    If you find a small cabinet shop with a decent saw with a scoring blade ( little backwards spinning blade in front of main blade to stop laminate breaking out) they'd cut up the ply exactly to size and you could drill hinge mortises or drawer fixings and finish edges with a laminate trimmer sandpaper and a bit of oil. A pre laminated sheet of 18mm birch ply costs between £130- 180 depending on quality of laminate. Medium sized kitchen with upper cabinets will use less than 3 sheets. The laminate is really tough needs minimal finishing and comes in a bazillion colours. I did my kitchen at home 70s orange.

    Poggonpohl on the cheap.

    a panel saw is flat....not vertical.

    and that little saw...is called a scribe.

    and I used to make cabinets and counters for harrods...and many other c*nts.
