Re: How Not to Drive Your Wife Crazy: Mockup Before Milling

When building our country-style kitchen cabinets and maintaining door sizes for ease in fabrication, I wanted no face frame between the doors on the Kitchen-sink cabiet nor the doors on the center-island . So, I attached a narrow spacer strip to the Left door which had to be closed first, then the gap was hidden when the Right door was closed. It worked and looked great to me!~!

However, I started to hear "bangs" as the doors got slammed and I heard unitelligible utterances. Again, I liked the look. BUT. My wife arranged things and when she opened the left door, it also opens the right door and needless to say, it didn't matter how it looked, she wanted each door independent. I trimmed and trimmed on that spacer on the left door. I'm not completely happy with it, but SHE is and I get praises for her new cabinets instead of those load bangs and utterances. It DOES pay to engage others, especially if they are the primary user.
