What happens here

To construct the cabinet doors, the creator opts for cope and stick joinery, a classic method for building durable and attractive door frames. He meticulously uses a router table with specialized router bits to shape the ends and edges of the wood pieces that will form the door frames. This process creates a precise, interlocking profile on each piece. After shaping, wood glue is applied to these joints, and the pieces are pressed together to form a sturdy and perfectly aligned door frame, showcasing the consistency and precision afforded by using the router table for such tasks.

Goal: Fabricate sturdy and aesthetically pleasing cabinet doors.

Now we gotta build the doors and a lot of other stuff. All right, this is why I love using the router table for stuff like that. I mean, look at that joint right there. I mean, everything is coming in there. Super tight, super perfect. And most importantly, super precise and consistent.
