DIY Instructions For Making Hanging Tool Cabinet Plans With Sliding Doors
- Create the component panels as per the dimensions shown in the materials list.
- Craft furrows for the sliding doors into the bottom and top panels. The channel cut into the top panel will be 1/2 inch deep, and the bottom panel will have a 1/4 inch deep channel.
- Once the cabinet construction is completed, the doors will be raised and fit into these channels.
- Fasten the bottom and top panels to the back panel with glue and use spaces to maintain the squareness of the structure.
- Create slots for biscuits into the ends of the bottom and top panels as well as the side panels.
- Build the door handles on a router from a large timber panel and a cove cutter.
- Use a straight router bit and a stop block to finish cutting the handles into separate pieces.
- Secure the side panels to the cabinet assembly with glue.
- Attach the handles on the door panels with glue.
- Build the shelves and fasten them inside the cabinet.
- Craft matching tenons on the door panels that will fit into the channels cut earlier into the cabinet base and top.
- Check that the doors can slide freely. Shave any excess timber as needed.
