Thanks Mike, you really should as it is a nice looking feature to a cabinet face frame.  It really make inset drawers and doors look twice as good as the plain type.

Well we might have the same customers, you think as mine for this chest is also a repeat customer from the other chest I build a few months ago.  It is nice to have repeat customers as that tell you that you are definately doing something that they like.  Building them the old fashioned way is a long and tiring method.  I'll send you an e-mail and tell you about my method.  I got it down to a method of which I made the one for the chest I'm building in about 45 minutes.  Thank you for the nice comment.  E-mail will be forth coming.

I'm telling you Jay, we must have the same customers, I am working on the same thing myself.  The vanities I made awhile ago, the customer now wants a matching linen closet and 2 towers.  Do you have the beaded faceframe jig?  I don't, I do it the old fashioned way.  Run tons of beaded molding and the old faithful miter box.  Nonetheless, there's alot of work in inset drawers/doors even without the bead, you're doing a great job!!

Im sure the customer will have nothing but high praise for these magnificent cabinets,they are gorgeous but that's all you do is superior work.

Thanks David,  I will be a few days as this is a fill in between that house full of cabinets and my limited spare time.  It will similiar to the other beaded 12 drawer I did a while ago.  Same customer who wants a smaller chest but with a mirror on the back.
