What happens here
The builder prepares a new type of cabinet door that incorporates plexiglass for a 'classy' feel, but opts for plexiglass over actual glass due to easier customization. The plexiglass is measured and carefully cut using a table saw. Frames for the doors are assembled using a jointer for precise tongue-and-groove joints, then glued and clamped. Hinges are dry-fitted before final assembly.
Goal: Construct cabinet doors featuring plexiglass panels.
