STORAGE CABINET
STORAGE CABINET
Keep everything in place, easily.
This storage shelf is designed to be as versatile as
possible. In other words, it holds just about anything that is
likely to end up scattered all over the floor in your child's
room. Its tall spaces hold oversize children's books, school
notebooks, stacks of games or stuffed animals. The smaller
spaces are proportioned for tapes, CDs, art supplies and
the odds and ends that inevitably clutter a child's room. It
also functions as a night stand because it falls at the right
height for a lamp, radio and alarm clock.
The construction of this piece employs the same materials
as the child's bed–birch plywood and solid poplar. The
assembly techniques rely on a combination of plate joints,
screws and finish nails to draw shelf parts tightly together,
so you won't need a bunch of expensive clamps.
Making Case Parts
Use a circular saw and 40-tooth thin-kerf,
crosscut blade to cut the plywood case parts to
size. When plywood is cut, there is a tendency for
the face veneer to chip where the blade exits the
cut. You can prevent this chipping by using two
techniques. First, clamp a straight board across
the panel stock to guide the saw. Next, advance
the saw slowly, and keep the saw base tight to
the guide strip
(Photo 1)
.
1--Clamp a straightedge
across the workpiece and
crosscut it with a circular
saw. Support the piece that
will be cut off.
Set up the router with a straight bit and an
accessory edge guide. Adjust the router to cut the
rabbet at the back edge of the case sides. Test
the setup on a piece of scrap stock. Then clamp a
case side to the workbench and cut the
(Photo

. If you use a router bit with a 1/2-in.-dia. shank,
you can make the cut in one pass. If you are
using a bit with a 1/4-in.-dia. shank, you should
take two passes to cut the rabbet.
2--Use a straight bit in the
router and the edge guide
attachment to cut a rabbet
along the back edge of the
side panels.
Mark the locations of plate joint slots in the
cabinet sides, shelves and partitions. Note that
the middle shelf has staggered slots on the top
and bottom surfaces. It's important to stagger the
slots to prevent too much wood from being
removed in one location.
3--Clamp a fence across a
case side, and use it to
guide the plate joiner when
cutting the plate slots for the
shelves.
Clamp a guide block to the case sides and
shelves to help locate the plate joiner when
cutting the slots in the center of a panel
(Photo

. When you cut the slots in the sides for the
case top and bottom, you can use the fence on
the plate joiner to register the cuts
(Photo 4)
.
4--Clamp the case sides
upright in a vise and cut the
slots along their upper edge
using the plate joiner's fence
for alignment.
Use the workbench top as the registration surface
when you cut the slots in the ends of the shelves
and partitions. Firmly hold both the plate joiner
and the workpiece to the benchtop when making
the cut. Keep your fingers well away from the
cutting area to avoid accidents.
5--The short partitions are
attached to the panel above
with screws, so there is no
need to use glue with the
joining plates.
Countersink pilot holes through the top, bottom
and middle shelves.
Case Assembly
Begin the case assembly process by joining the
case top to the short partitions
(Photo 5)
. Install
the joining plates in their slots and position the
short partitions over them. You do not need to use
glue on these plates because they merely locate
the joint. Turn the assembly over, and bore pilot
holes in the partitions
(Photo 6)
. Then screw the
partitions to the top panel.
6--Bore and countersink
pilot holes into the top of the
short partitions. Then drive
screws to fasten the
partitions and panel.
Spread glue in the joining plate slots for the joints
between the short partitions and the middle shelf.
Place the middle shelf over the short partitions,
bore pilot holes into the partition ends and fasten
the shelf and partitions with screws.
Next, install joining plates in the slots for the joints
between the bottom and the tall partitions.
Assemble the partitions and bottom, and fasten
them with screws. Spread glue in the slots and on
the plates for the joints between the tall partitions
and the middle shelf. Install the plates, clamp the
assembly together and drive 6d finish nails
through the middle shelf into the short partitions
(Photo 7)
.
7--Drive finish nails at an
angle through the tall
partitions and the middle
shelf, and into the short
partitions.
Spread glue in the slots and on the joining plates
for the joints between the middle shelf, top and
bottom, and the case sides. Assemble the parts,
and drive 6d finish nails to fasten the joints.
Rip and crosscut the edge strips for the top. Apply
glue to them, clamp them to the top, and nail the
parts together.
Apply poplar facing to the front of the sides, top,
bottom, middle shelf and partitions. Start with the
case sides, then apply the facing to the horizontal
parts and finally to the partitions. Note that the
strips overhang the plywood panels by 1/16 in. on
each edge except for the case top, which has a
1/8-in. overhang.
8--Use a chisel to cut a
small clearance notch in the
top corner of each vertical
facing strip. Cut in toward
the case.
Use a chisel to cut the notch at the top outside
corners of the facing strips
(Photo 8)
.
Place the top panel upside down on the work
surface, and invert the case assembly over it.
Bore pilot holes, and screw the top to the
assembly. Complete the case by nailing on the
back.
9--Use a putty knife to press
drying filler into the nail
holes. Slightly mound the
filler, and let it harden before
sanding.
Rip and crosscut the pieces of poplar and
plywood for the toe kick assembly. Clamp the
assembly together, and join the parts with glue
and 6d finish nails. Clamp the toe kick assembly
to the bottom. Then bore and countersink pilot
holes through the cleats into the bottom. Screw
the cleats to the bottom.
10--Sand the surfaces
carefully using a random-
orbit block sander. This tool
is small enough to fit into the
compartments.
Finishing
Set the heads of all finish nails below the surface.
Then fill the holes with a wood filler
(Photo 9)
.
Mound the filler slightly over each hole since it
shrinks when it dries. Sand the cabinet, inside
and out, with 120-, 150- and 180-grit sandpaper
(Photo 10)
. Remove all sanding dust before
moving to the next finer grit of sandpaper.
Carefully ease all sharp edges with a sanding
block
(Photo 11)
. Move the sanding block
perpendicular to the wood's edge to achieve a
crisp bevel. Remove all sanding dust by
vacuuming and using a tack cloth before applying
the primer.
11--Put a small, crisp bevel
on the facing and edge
strips with a sanding block
that you move perpendicular
to the strip's edge.
Use a small-diameter, smooth-surface paintroller
to apply a coat of latex primer to all cabinet
surfaces
(Photo 12)
. Note that the long-handled
roller used here has one end that is somewhat
shaggy. This allows you to apply paint right to the
corner. When the primer is dry, sand it lightly with
220-grit sandpaper. Finish the project by applying
two coats of latex semigloss paint for an attractive
finish.
12--A small-diameter roller
is used to apply the primer
and top coat. The square
end of the roller allows it to
paint into corners.
