I am a member that has been hiding in the bushes and just trying to learn the ropes. I have decided to start my first cabinet and things are going pretty good so far. This cabinet is based on a cabinet Knievel has designed and built called "The Woody". I have to give credit where credit is due and much credit goes to Knievel for the design and execution in his projects. I am trying not to butcher the design, just trying to do something similar because the design fits with the style in the room the cabinet will be in.

The cabinet itself will be built from Cherry I have had left over from a cabinet project I had in the past. The follow is what I started with. This 3/4" Cherry Plywood that is furniture grade, really nice stuff.

The next pictures show me getting ready to start cutting to size. Here shows my Fesstool plunge cut saw that really works wonders when you need to size a 4x8 sheet of plywood.

Here shows the first panel cut to size.

The next picture shows the 2nd panel. The second panel is rough cut with a jigsaw and I will use the first panel as a guide for my router with a flush cut bit. I done this because I wanted the side to be a perfect mirror image.

Here is a picture of my router with the flush cut bit installed.

crashfixer:
This shows how the flush cut bit works.

The next pictures show the areas I am going to make a rabbit cut in the back so I can hide the back piece of ply. The first picture shows the rough area to be removed, the second is the actual bit I am going to use and the third is the router table set up ready for the cut.
