Beaded face frame cabinet construction.
We also make these beaded inset style cabinets.
Face frames on sides of kitchen cabinets should overlap 1 4 in.
The strongest way to construct a beaded frame is with time honored mortise and tenon joints.
After the joints are cut the bead is shaped on the rails and stiles and then mitered at the corners where the beads intersect.
How to add beading to a face frame adding beading to an already assembled face frame is going to add additional width to your face frame so plan accordingly for the width of your beading and then build your face frame.
On the outside edge.
We run the bead on the face frame stock chop the notches and miters with a morso fc chopper and assemble with pocket screws.
Above the bottom shelf of the cabinet.
We join the face frames together then rout a 1 4 inch rabbet around all the openings.
We do beaded face frames all the time.
We made fixtures for the chopper so the width of the face frame stock doesn t matter and one has a stop to aid the corner clipping process.
Beading bits come in numerous sizes and you ll have to determine what size bead you like on your cabinet.
