From start to finish here are some highlights about how I built my kitchen cabinet. This is going in a 2022 Mercedes Sprinter 4x4. I’m sorry about all the time lapse in the starting build footage, but that is what I captured when initially working on this cabinet. The chapters below try to list the main concepts, but there are quite a few miscellaneous tips and tricks scattered throughout.

Besides a table saw, most of these techniques involve the router. I recommend a small trim or palm router for most van work as you aren’t hogging off thick wood cuts usually.

The Plunge Base is very helpful for lots of projects, and the fixed base is easier to operate with one hand.

Depending on your router you may not need the adapter, or might need a different one? This works with my Makita.

Almost any will do though. Pay attention if you need top or bottom bearing, or both like this one.
