OU R S H A K E R C A B I N E T consists of 10 separate drawings, each meticulously rendered as a pdf that you can print out on an 8-1/2 x 11 sheet of paper or view
on your computer. We think this treatment has made the cabinet as easy to build as possible. The project was designed by Neal Barrett, a long-time PM contributor and one of the nation’s best furniture makers. Neal’s design is accessible to the small-shop craftsman who has a benchtop planer, small table saw, router and hand tools. Traditional details like a flat panel door have been used throughout.
The plans have been prepared for us by illustrator George Retseck, another longtime contributor and an artist who is well experienced drawing our furniture projects. Study George’s plans and you’ll find that he has selected eleva-tion and plan views so that everything is easy to understand. All joints, center lines, and clear-ances are clearly labeled. Nothing is left for you to interpret or guess.
We hope you enjoy building the Shaker cabi-net. Send us a picture of your finished project, we’d like to see it.
