Made with Asian Lauan and Baltic Birch Plywood. It was my first and last experience with the Lauan; the veneer was only .015" thick, about the same as three thicknesses of tissue. Just one light pass with a handplane while trimming the case finger joints and I was through to the very loudly contrasting 2nd ply.

I will say one thing, I also have used Luan plywood once but never will again, either. I cringe whenever I see it recommended.
Again, great cabinet.

2 questions, what are the dimensions? Also, I can't see from the photo; what's in the cubbies above the drawers?
