I applied the final coats of varnish to the latest batch of five cabinet doors this week and installed them today.
With the doors on the sink cabinet we can no longer see the cleaning products and plumbing, attractive as they are. We think the full height doors look better that the typical false-drawer-on-top design.
The three doors to the left of the microwave cabinet came out quite well. A measuring/mental math error when making the cabinet’s face frame made me fear I’d need to make the doors different sizes to keep the spacing between them consistent. By using hinges with different offsets on each door I was able to work around the problem. I’ve got to say I’m rather pleased with the result.

yay! so how many do you have left? i like the full height doors at the sink, good idea.
A total of five doors remain. The two doors for the pantry pull-outs (to the left of the fridge) are completely assembled and finished. I just need to tweak the fit of the pull-outs a bit before applying them. One more just needs to be glued up and finished. That only leaves three more to make!
NO! wait a minute!! That adds up to six. Yes, I'm sure, there are SIX doors remaining..... (I do know how to count.... Really)
