This wouldn't help with the other angles on the cabinet, mainly the top/back panel which is at an angle too.

Well, yes. I'm doing the exact same thing on my PP Bartop:

We can see the "edge" of the plywood of the top panel. It's okay if you're going to laminate or paint your cabinet but it would look terrible for laminated chipboard, especially if we go with black laminate for the final version. We don't intend on painting or adding any extra laminate on our cabinets. We want our cabinets to be cut-and-assemble, like IKEA furniture.

I think our goal of "Lets build a bartop" has changed to, "Lets build a bartop, the best we can, and teach ourselves and create tools that will translate to other projects (like the dowel drilling and chamfer jigs)". That's not to say anyone else's way isn't the best, this just happens to be the best way for us. If I am being honest, the most fun I have had on this project is creating the jigs. Please keep the ideas coming though.  :cheers:
