Florida West Coast Woodworkers

January 2024 – Basic Kitchen Cabinets

Sorry for being delinquent in updating the website. My only excuse is that I have spent a lot of time editing the videos of the meetings. I plan to give the website much more attention this year.


Several of the regular workers weren’t present at this meeting, but volunteers jumped in and took over the jobs. Pat started the meeting by thanking everybody for jumping in and supporting. He then introducing guest and made some announcement. Susan Darovec. Looked for volunteers to make bird houses. But after contacting the man from Audubon it was decided that the bird houses were not needed. John Darovec made a plea for workers for the State Fair to man the fine furniture area.

The program was presented by Larry Simmons, who gave basic information on about different types of kitchen cabinets, construction methods, material types, hinges and drawer guides.

Sorry I dont have the names of all the presenters, I will get the list next month.
