After quite a long time (2 year olds don't help get you shop time) I've finally completed the "hot wall" of cabinets and installed them. I have 4 more cabinets to make and install to finish the kitchen, but my relatively small shop can't really hold all of them at once, so I'm doing a wall at a time.
Here's the old set of uppers.
And the new set.
The old lowers.
And the new ones.
The cabinets are birch plywood, hard maple face frames, and hard maple drawer and doors rails and stiles with curly maple panels. Cathedral raised panel doors with soft close hinges and soft close full extension drawer slides for the lower cabinets. The finish is amber shellac with several coats of EPL (EmTech Production Lacquer).
I expect this will greatly increase the usefulness of the kitchen cabinets. I still have some adjustable shelves to build in a hurry for this set, and I am looking forward to completing the other side.
The rest of the install photos and larger res shots can be seen here.

Thanks for looking.
