Thanks all. I think you're right @HOJ and thanks for the image.

Most of the cabinet videos I've watched show each cabinet as a distinct piece, fixing them together at the sides. If you're using say 18mm ply, this creates a double thick 36mm ply sides at each new cabinet. There is a place called Uncommon Projects which seem to do cabinets with only a single...

Thanks all, the veneer idea is nice, I'll see if I can manage that.

My wife's annoying dog has chewed a part of cabinet and I'd like to try and fix it. It doesn't look like a major job to me but I've never really done this sort of thing before so am looking for advice. Would it be a case of filling, sanding down and varnishing again? I've no idea how I'd get...

Worktop looks great, nice work! How do you find the accuracy of the Smartbench? I felt it was rated quite low compared to other CNC machines, even hobby ones (+/- 0.5mm).

Thanks both. Good to hear that the Shapeoko is up to the job. I think Yeti have just gone into administration so a bit precarious there anyway. I currently don't have a decent table saw so I'm still weighing up whether to go that route instead. If I do get a CNC it will be doing almost everything.

Not yet tbh. I'm still trying to finish my shed to house the CNC to build the kitchen units :D I still think I will get a basic CNC. Last time I looks it was between the Yeti Smartbench and the Carbide Shapeoko but I'll do more research once the shed is up (hopefully next week).

I'm comfortable cutting a piece of mdf into a slightly smaller rectangle but making a metal frame is beyond me I'm afraid.

I'm in West Cornwall but I said South West because I'm happy to drive to pick up.

Exactly why I'm trying to make it myself 😂

Hi all, I've been tasked with making a dining table similar to this (image below) and am trying to source the frame. Does anyone know where I can get something like this made? Ideally in the South West though if shipping is reasonable that is fine with me. Thanks!

Ah yes sorry I should have confirmed this is for me to make my own kitchen. But I also have a quite a few bits of furniture I'd like to make also so it wouldn't be a one-time use. I also like the idea of being able to easily replace cabinets should I need to. I'm not opposed to getting power...

Thanks for the reply Phil. My (in)ability to work to fine tolerances is exactly why I'm looking into CNC's. I've done a bit of woodwork but I'd not be confident doing a whole kitchen. I'm fairly comfortable with software and am assuming (possibly naively), that with the Aribabox designs I'll be...

Hi all, I recently came across a youtube video detailing a kitchen build using a 'hobby' CNC router: I'm keen to try this myself using the Aribabox's designs and am looking for CNC recommendations. Budget would be probably £3k but I'm fairly flexible with that. I'm happy to get a kit and...
