While the construction likely doesn't necessitate 1/2" ply I would use because of the mobile usage this cabinet will see. Presuming the casters are to make it mobile.

The first time I wheeled it around the shop I'd back it into something sharp enough to gouge the 1/4" ply, perhaps even hard enough to puncture it.

I finally finished the carriage for this one. I think I have made 7 of these in the past, they are very poplar at Xmas time. (rob your neighbor game gift).
I use a Free harbor freight flash light. overall about 9-1/2" long and stands about 4-1/2 tall.
This one is walnut and maple, finished with Lacquer and will set on my desk  
at least until I forget to make a gift for someone, and give it to them
 
Made 2 this year. very fun to make.



               

Does not do miters, does have adjustable fence.

Neat project.

I see you're using the same Monkey Wards saw I own. Which is why I have to say I would not have had the courage to do those cuts on it.

Great prices Arlin.

Can you sharpen these or do you send them out ?

Hello John , I have always enjoyed your build alongs , thanks for posting them . I have 2 questions . I know you have explained this before but what are you using for your vacuum bags & pump . Next is your drum sander , how well does it work for you by making 2 passes for a wide panel . I am looking for a drum sander as far as my next purchase . Thanks again , Gary

Looks like it's on this coming Thursday eve..I'll give it a look..thx.

You always post interesting threads.

I am looking forward to watching you build your door.

I have one of the Diemaster II blades on my saw right now. It doesn't cut quite as clean as a Woodslicer, but it's already lasted longer than the WS did. It's the one I'll use from now on, I bookmarked that page you linked.

I put one on last year. I also have a thein baffle. I made a doughnut out of MDF. I put a groove to set over the edge of the DC to help seal. It has been working well for me.
