I purchased the router bits to make this but the problem I ran into was making the slot in the frame. You said make the full 1/4" cut but you don't expalin where on the frame it should be cut. In the middle? 1/8" from the bottom? You don't say. Another area I'm stuck on is the thickness of the panel. Some people have said it should be smaller than the frame. You didn't say in the video but it looks 3/4". How to get the panel flush with frame?

I even made the 45 deg jig.

I have a hard time thinking these are professionals when I see them doing their glue ups on a table saw...

If I caught someone doing that on my table saws I'd have to lay the smack down lol. Glue is messy and a pain to clean up. Maybe that's just where they had the light, I don't know.

@Phishboy26 If that router was only going 10,000 rpm it would have some major problems trying to cut that wood. I'm guessing it's going at least 16,000 which is almost a minimum effective speed for most router bits.

Shapers spin at about 10,000 rpm, much slower because the diameter of a shaper cutter is much larger.

Personally, I only use shapers for door making. It's faster, the cut is nicer, and it's more precise. I outfit 2 of my 4 shapers with power feeders to make things safer too.

this is why I use a shaper and power feeder, I'd go nuts if I had to work this slow.

Production must be well in excess of 5/day at that rate...

Do you think there is any advantage of a mitred corner over cope and stick? To me, it doesn't give you any room to trim for exact fit after assembly. Fine for full overlay doors, but not so good for insets.

where to put the knob? noticed that the frame is rounded.
