Back in 1987, I worked in a cabinet shop called Whipple Tree Kitchens. It was a small place with 5 or 6 of us making solid wood kitchen cabinets for people who wanted more than just the usual melamine boxes.

The trick with these faces frames was sanding the wood smooth – a challenge because of the way wood grain meets at 90º.
