Rabbit cut:
So that is what that kind of cut is called.
I recently made a juke box, where I cut a 2 X 4 like that to use as a base. The juke set down inside the cut in the 2 X4s.
I used my table saw and had to make two cuts on each board. I called them "L shaped cuts", now I know the real term to use.

looks like a great job you got started. I like that cherry ply too, but it may be a little too expensive for me, except maybe for a small bartop or juke?

I got up this morning ready to work on my cabinet today so I thought I would share what I got done today.

The following pictures show the cabinet in the process of being assembled. I have assembled it with glue and brads. All the fasteners are used in a nature that they will not be seen when the project is finished, I didnt want to have to fill any nail holes on the outside.

1. shows sticks being glued and nailed on the inside of the cabinet.

2. the two side being joined up.

3. shows everything all glued and clamped up.

4. close up of the clamps used

5. shows the back being put on. the back is put on with 1" staples.

6. close up of the back.

crashfixer:
7. shows the cabinet together and standing up.

8. shows the panel I drilled for the speakers.

9. shows the control panel being assembled.

10. is the cabinet with the control panel mostly assembled and the drawer installed.

11. is a close up of the drawer.

12. this picture is looking at the underside if the drawer. I used pocket screws to attach the drawer front so no nails or screws can be seen unless you get down and look up at the bottom of the drawer when it is opened.

crashfixer:
13. is looking at the door getting drilled for the concealed hinges.

14. is showing the door installed.

15. is showing the monitor installed. The monitor is an acer LCD.

16. this picture is kinda tricky to see what is going on. the picture was taken from inside the cabinet looking at the back of the monitor. I wanted to try and show how it is mounted and the only way to see this is from the back.


Tomorrow, I am going to be working on the control panel.
