Step-by-step build — 6 steps. Also available as a print sheet.
Cut out the bottom profile of the side panels with a jigsaw. Build the two side panels as true mirror images, front leg smaller than the back. Drill three pocket holes along the top edge on the inside, jig set for 3/4" material.
Attach the sides to the top with 1-1/4" pocket hole screws, then attach the bottom to the sides with pocket holes.
Cut the back panel on a table saw or with a circular saw and attach with glue and 3/4" brad nails.
Build the face frame separately with 3/4" pocket holes and 1-1/4" pocket hole screws, then attach to the front of the cabinet with 1-1/4" brad nails and glue.
Build the door frame from the stiles and rails, then add the mitered chevron pieces as an inlay behind the frame. Attach the plywood door panel behind the chevron detail with glue and 3/4" brad nails.
Install the door with the small hinges and add a magnetic clasp to keep it shut. Add shelves, sand, and finish.
