Cabinets come in many styles and finishes, but the one thing they have in common is how much they can influence the overall appearance of a kitchen. A run of new cabinets can completely transform a space—and add significantly to the value of a home. It's no wonder they can cost so much. But now they don't have to.
Kitchen Cabinets Made Simple demystifies kitchen cabinet construction and makes it possible for the dedicated do-it-yourselfer to build new cabinets for a fraction of the cost of buying them. This multi-media approach -- DVD and illustrated book guide—visually and completely instruct woodworkers throughout the process of building sturdy face-frame cabinets with frame-and-panel doors. It's all in here, from drawing out a plan and constructing the cabinet boxes to finishing and installation.

Great book for the price
This is a really great book for the price. It's in full color and the book itself is a good size to get detailed pictures and text on the same page. It really does walk you through building cabinets from the ground up, assuming the reader has no prior knowledge. This is perfect for me because I am new to woodworking so there are many terms in here that are explained that would no otherwise be on forums and communities on the Internet. I can't rate this book highly enough for the content, it really walks the reader through all parts of a cabinet and the process to build, including different joinery methods and explanations as to what are the most commonly used materials and why.
