Modern Cabinetry: European Design & Construction Techniques

Modern Cabinetry: European Design & Construction Techniques by Christ, Jim. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780806931890.

Learn the secrets of the 32-mm system used by European craftsmen and featuring frameless, smooth cabinets with such intriguing details as hidden adjustable hinges and recessed drawer fronts. Hundreds of diagrams and photographs accompany how-to instructions for measuring, constructing, sanding, oiling, lacquering, and assembling these modern pieces. Woodworkers do not have to completely revamp the way they work nor do they have to switch over to the metric system; rather, they can incorporate the unique European designs, techniques, tools, materials, and hardware into traditional cabinetmaking systems.
