Hey everybody. This is Tyson from Tyson Moore Builds,
and I’m going to show you how I made this medicine cabinet.
The first step that I did was purchase some premium pine from my local hardware store
and brought it over to my miter saw and cut it into various lengths.
here you'll see that I cut a couple of pieces for my sides, and a top and bottom.
Next at my router table I installed this carbide-tipped cove bit.
Cove bits are used for detailing the edges of casework and drawers and columns, and I’m going
to use this just to add a little bit of detail to the top and bottom of my medicine cabinet
And as you see here, when the top and the sides and the door will
all come together it should look like this. If you love this type of content be sure to

Now for the doors I cut a piece the exact same length as the cabinet sides
and then brought it over to my table saw to begin ripping it down.
Next I’m installing this adjustable router bit set which is used for making mission style doors.
And after measuring my plywood I’m able to add spacers
so that the plywood panel will fit perfectly into the groove of the stiles and the rails,
with just enough room to move freely without rattling.
And here you'll see I just centered my cut on the rails and stiles and ran it through the router.
I’m really thankful for a solid router table and a good fence, helps me cut these pieces securely
You can see how precise this router bit cut this groove as it slides perfectly over this panel.
Next I’m installing the second bit in the router set and this is going to help me cut
the opposite profile of the bit that I just used. So I’ll add those four shims again tighten
everything down and cut the bottom of my rails. And everything will come together just like this.
The rails will be nice and square, and now it's just time to add that plywood panel.
At the table saw I’ll cut it to size and slide it into my rails and styles just like this.
You'll see that the plywood has just a little bit of room to move around.
Now after gluing the rails and stiles together I used a Forstner bit to cut out the size that
I’m going to need for this concealed hinge. Now thinking about the sides of my cabinet.
Here I’m using a router bit that allows you to change out the bearings at the top so that
you can get adjustable depths for your rabbet. Now, for me, I just wanted this shallow rabbet on
the sides, so that when I added the plywood panel to the back it would sit flush with the cabinet.
And after adding my hinges and testing the fit, it was time to assemble everything together.
Now I decided to attach everything together with screws.
Here I’m using one of my favorite bits in the shop. It's a countersink bit with an adjustable
depth stop that gives me perfect holes every time. At this point everything really starts to come
together. Here I’m just adding a couple of shelves for the inside.
Next at my drill press I’m using these plug
cutters to cut out little plugs in that premium pine that I’m using.
I’m going to use these to cover those holes that I just cut with that countersink bit.
Here I’m just adding glue and tapping them in with my mount and letting them dry.
Now in the past I’ve used a flush cut saw to cut these plugs off,
but this time I’m using this carbide tipped plug planer
that attaches to your drill and simply drills down and cuts flush all the plugs.
And as you can tell this plug pointer makes quick work of cutting those plugs flush.
And with just a little bit of sanding you can see how the plug perfectly covers those screw holes.
Now it's time to add the back Over at my table saw I cut off a piece of plywood
and because I cut that shallow rabbet earlier you can see it fits flush.
And with that it's done. I just added a couple of door handles and that soft close works perfectly.
