Comment by Tom on June 18, 2012 at 1:54pm: Thanks very much for your quick and detailed response!

Comment by Scott on June 18, 2012 at 1:35pm: Thanks, Tom. The cabinet boxes are birch plywood- mostly 3/4". The face frames, and moldings are poplar. Some are stock moldings, some I custom routed out of poplar stock. The wainscot is mostly Trupan MDF with the insets made of Home Depot 1/4" Luan underlayment- like door skins. I had them finished by a pro cabinet painter using Sher-Wood pigmented conversion varnish from Sherwin Williams. Extremely smooth, hard low-gloss milky finish. Color matched to the rest of the trim in my house.

Comment by Tom on June 18, 2012 at 1:05pm: This is very impressive. I am thinking of doing something similar. May I ask what materials you used for construction (all plywood?), and what and how you applied the finish? Thanks!

Comment by KregRep on November 22, 2010 at 9:01am: Trim Carpentry is a great application for the Kreg Jig! Well done!

Comment by Al Barale on November 11, 2010 at 11:47pm: That looks really good Scott, I like the detail on the columns. Well done.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
