For Christmas, my parents wanted me to make a second rolling cabinet for their camper, matching one I made two years ago.
It was interesting to go through a process again with so much time - and hopefully more skill - in between. Many parts of the build went more smoothly than I remember. In particular, building and attaching the face frame and rear panels was much easier with Dominos. Last time I did it with splines and brads.
I do still get frustrated working in plywood. It just seems too easy to plane or sand through the veneer. Also, I made the same mistake I made two years ago with the hinges. The description on Lee Valley does not make the overlap measurement obvious and my design different from the hinges. I ended up buying some adapters - a waste of money if I would have taken better notes or had better memory.
