Kitchen

Island

By Rob Joseph

Leg Dimensions

Step 1 - Cut the legs (A) slightly longer

than the dimensions given in the material

list. For the thickness we need, the legs

are cut from a piece of 12"-thick stock,

ripped to 3" wide, as shown in photo A

and A inset.

Leg Glue-Up

Step 2 - Use some wood glue (R) and lots

of clamps to gang a pair of legs together, as

shown in photo B.

We call this project a kitchen island, but after

its completion, we decided that it could be used

in a craft room, sewing room or any place that

requires the ease of a cart that moves around.

So don't let the title fool you; we're sure you

have some room in your house for this handy

cart on wheels.

Rails

Step 3 - Cut all the rails (B-G) to the

dimensions given in the material list. Use

the radial arm saw to make the cross cuts

and the table saw to make the ripped cuts,

as shown in photo C.

by 2"-deep rabbet along their inside top

edge. Use the router in the router table

with a rabbeting bit adjusted to make

the appropriate rabbet and a fence to add

stability, as shown in photo D.

Witness Marks

Ganging Legs

Long Rails Mortise Locations

Step 7 - It's always best to make the

mortises in the legs irst, then the tenons

on the rails are made to it. Start by

marking each leg right front, left front,

right back, and left back. Arrange the legs

so the best sides are facing out. e inside

faces are where the mortises will be made.

Mark each face to avoid confusing yourself,

as shown in photo G.

Step 8 - Start by making mortises for the

long rails. Lay the legs lat with the correct

side facing up. Align their bottom edges

so that they are all lush and clamped

together, as shown in photo H.

Step 9 - Mark each leg with a top and

bottom. Refer to the front and side view

drawings for the long rail locations. Using

a square and ruler, mark each mortise

location on the legs, as shown in photo I.

Side View

Mortising

Step 10 - Use the drill press with a 8"

mortising chisel to make the mortises in

each leg down to a depth of 4", as shown

in photo J. If you don't have a mortising

attachment for your drill press, a series

of 8" holes drilled to a depth of 4" will

work as well. A sharp chisel will be used to

square up the edges.

Short Rail Mortise Locations

Step 11 - Lay the legs lat with the short rail

mortise side facing up and their bottom

edges lush with one another. Clamp all

4 legs together. Refer to the front and

side view drawings for mortise locations.

Transfer the locations to the legs, as shown

in photo K.

Taper Locations

Tapering Jig

Step 12 - Use the same mortising chisel

and dimensions that were used in step 10

to make the short rail mortises, as shown

in photo L.

Step 13 - e bottom's of the legs each

receive a taper on their inside faces. Stand

the legs up in the inal order. Notice how

the tapers are going to be on the same face

as the mortises. Refer to the front and

side view drawings for taper locations.

Transfer locations to each leg, as shown in

photo M.

Step 14 - Use the table saw with a tapering

jig to make each taper, as shown in photo

N. If your table saw blade does not rise

high enough, use the band saw and then

the jointer (to smooth the cut) to make

the tapers.

Step 15 - Use the table saw with the fence

and miter gauge to cut the tenons in each

of the rails. Refer to the front and side view

drawings for tenon dimensions. Make a

Step 16 - Lay the rails lat against the table

saw surface, and make the cheek cuts,

nibbling away the material with each pass,

Shelving Dimensions

test tenon in some scrap wood to assure

proper itting. Start of by making the

shoulder cuts, as shown in photo O. Pass

each piece through the blade several times,

moving the piece further from the fence

with each pass to remove the remaining

material, as shown in photo O inset.

Step 17 - Sand all the rails and legs through

220-grit sandpaper.

Step 18 - Cut the middle shelf (I) and the

bottom shelf (H) to the dimensions given

in the material list. Use the table saw to

make the cuts, as shown in photo Q.

Shelving Notch Layouts

Jig Sawing

Step 20 - Use a hand-held jig saw to

remove the notches in the shelves, as shown

in photo S.

Step 21 - e top rails; both long and short,

receive a groove near their top inside edges.

e groove is used with top mounting clips

(N) to fasten the top to the frame. Use

Groove For Mounting Clips

Step 19 - e shelves have notches cut out

of their corners to it around the legs. Dry-

it the rails and legs together, and measure

around the inside corner of each leg to

get the notches' dimensions. Transfer the

dimensions to the shelves, as shown in

photo R.

Top Dimensions

Step 23 - Cut the top (J) to the dimensions

given in the material list. Cut the top's

length about 1" longer than what's given

in the material list. Use the radial arm

saw to cross cut the pieces and the table

saw to make the ripped cuts, as shown in

photo V.

biscuit slot locations in each piece, and use

the biscuit joiner to make the #10 slots, as

shown in photo U and U inset.

Step 24 - Glue and clamp the top pieces

with their side grain face up, as shown in
