First stab at cabinets

Next on the "honeydo list": revamp the kitchen cabinets. I had re-painted them a few years back, but they came out kind of "ugh", combined with being made of some kind of pressboard (*bleccchhh*). So, the idea is to make new doors, and veneer the cabinet carcass face strips (where the doors get attached).

Since I don't have a raised panel router bit set, I decided to go with shaker style doors, so it was off to YouTube land to research the process. Result: two doors down, about a dozen or so to go:

The tricky part is getting the darn groove centered in the inside edges, and matching up/aligning the tenon in the stretchers. Practice makes perfect, I guess ;)
