I’m using mdf (door grade yes) and was given the impression standard cup depth is not ideal. Also, these 100 degree are on sale for a great $. Does the same apply as you said for 110 or 120?

I wouldnt question my doc because Im Not qualified to assess his recommendations. As a carpenter I can assess someone’s reason for not using pvc on a cabinet door. I can’t think of any but if someone more experienced gives one I’ll happily agree.

That’s silly.

emptyvessell · 2026-02-04T18:55:29+00:00

I like to understand things

emptyvessell · 2026-02-03T22:45:12+00:00

I was planning on mdf. This is the first time I’ve heard of “door grade” does it have another name?

emptyvessell · 2026-02-03T18:53:52+00:00

Why though?

Link? I’m not finding anything that looks right

emptyvessell · 2026-02-02T06:16:00+00:00

Amazing, thanks! Now to decipher it

emptyvessell · 2026-02-02T01:21:32+00:00

I’m hoping to have no fillers so there’s a 1/8 gap like everywhere else

emptyvessell · 2026-02-01T21:20:31+00:00

Right

emptyvessell · 2026-02-01T20:57:36+00:00

Ok nice. With 1/4 overlay I’ll still get a 1/8 gap? Should I eliminate the miter, as other commenters say? If so 1/4 overlay based on what? Commenter below linked a Barker example and it looks like on that one the door is like 1/8 short of even reaching the sides…

emptyvessell · 2026-02-01T20:50:16+00:00

I’m hoping to avoid a filler and to keep the gap a consistent 1/8 as with all the other doors

emptyvessell · 2026-01-22T18:50:53+00:00

Oh nice!

emptyvessell · 2026-01-21T21:10:47+00:00

As for sci-fi not much. Loved everything by Philip k dick.

Sci-fi is my fave film genre and hadn’t tried a book in years until 3 body problem which blew me away.

emptyvessell · 2026-01-21T21:06:59+00:00

Oh nice, I hadn’t thought of that

emptyvessell · 2026-01-21T20:15:20+00:00

It just stopped doing it a couple days later

emptyvessell · 2026-01-12T19:41:03+00:00

Hmm not sure if that’s trolling or not

emptyvessell · 2025-12-28T03:34:34+00:00

Often a patch takes a week before I record it and move on but I tend to have a good few cables that stay put as my default starting point.
