Product Description
The face of any cabinet, whether in a kitchen, bath, built-in or stand-alone furniture is the doors and drawers. They, along with moldings or trim, define the style of a cabinet. Beyond the wide variety of stylistic differences, there are dozens of ways to build drawers or doors. And different methods have specific applications, depending on the use of the cabinet. While it's easy to learn how to build a basic cabinet box, making durable, well-fitting, and attractive doors and drawers is more challenging. This book covers all styles and methods of building drawers and doors, as well as installing hardware and design. This is the only book on the market that also covers full size doors, an especially useful feature since custom doors are extremely expensive. Because of the wide application of cabinetmaking, this book will appeal equally to carpenters and woodworkers

 Not A Complete Guide April 20, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is not a good book for beginners because it doesn't tell them the distance they need to be from the bottom of the drawer. It also doesn't tell them how deep you can make the grooves without weakening the drawer too much.
It is not a good book for advanced woodworkers because of the lack of a discussion of NK type drawers and slips.
So who is it's target audience?
I was tempted to give it an even lower rating but there are some good points in the book. I would not buy it again.
 Gorgeous photos. Great advice. February 15, 2008

This is a really great book. For beginners, it provides a lot of practical intro advice on the topic. For those with more experience, there are many more subtle lessons to be learned fromt he text and beautiful photos.
