![]() Unless there's some pressing need only have drawers with drawer fronts on all your base cabinets. Using dominos means clamping and clamping that mid panel on base cabinets is a pain.Īnd for what it's worth here's my opinion. Simpler design, simpler assembly and even simpler installation. ![]() Yes, it will take a little more material but everything else will be SO MUCH SIMPLER. And they have the virtue you note, the mortises are all the same depth.Īs far as mid panels go, don't do it. I've done a lot of cases and the 5x30's are more than adequate for 23/32 ply. That's what they use in the Festool training sessions. ![]() 5x30's are tempting because they don't require changing the depth setting back and forth but they seem awfully small.įirst, 5x30 by all means. I believe 6x40's are the "correct" size because 6mm is roughly 1/3 of 3/4" sheet goods. ![]() Suggestions or links to information on the subject will be great.Īs a separate question re: the sizing of dominos for 3/4" sheet goods, I'm wondering if I should use 8x40 dominos (which I have a ton of on-hand) or whether I should buck-up and buy some 6x40's or possibly 5x30's. I've looked but haven't found a good reference source, YouTube video or thread covering this question and I'd like to proceed using good technique. If the mid-panels are cut 3/4" shorter (taking into account the thickness of the bottom panel) then there is only one reference edge for the LR32, that being the top. Keeping the mid-panel and side panel heights the same has an advantage when using the LR32 of being able to reference off of both ends of the panel the way the LR32 is designed to be used. This wouldn't be noticeable on the base cabinet but it would be on the uppers (especially for short people). If the mid-panels are the same height as the sides, then it means the bottom becomes 2 or 3 pieces vs. I plan to have the L&R sides cover the bottom panel so it doesn't show from the sides. So my design question involves how-best to plan the joinery for connecting sides and mid-panels to the bottom.Īt issue is whether it makes sense to cut mid-panel(s) the same height as the L&R sides. I plan to use dominos for the joints and the LR32 for shelves, drawers and hinges. The issue is how to handle the mid-panels. The rail can also be used as a regular guide rail with Festool routers, saws and jigsaws.Guidance is needed regarding laying out base and upper cabinets when there are 2 or 3 banks of drawers or shelves in a single cabinet assembly. ![]() The LR32 guide rail with positioning holes is purchased separately in 1400 (FE-496939) or 2424mm (FE-491622) lengths.
