Time to fix my mistake. What will I need. Clamps, Pin Vise, Thinned downed Glue, and a Syringe.

With the cabinet clamped up, I carefully lift the side that is not glued down.

I mark out where my dowel holes are and drill at an angle until I puncture into the dowel hole. Once that is done, I inject glue into the dowel holes and clamp it back up like nothing ever went wrong. The fix went great and the cabinet is now sitting in the clamps waiting to set.
What else have I been up too? I've been working on my door. I have the frame almost done. I need to do a little more work to get the frame ready for glue up.
A few little fixes. The shoulder cut on one of my frame members didn't come out square. As a result when I put the frame together there was a little gap in between the frame. I built a saddle; which is a jig that allows me to correct the uneven joint.

I only had to take off a thin little shaving to get a better fit of the joint.

With my frame fitted to size it was time to start mocking up the shape of my two floating panels. I need the panels to curve slightly past the door frame.

I have also chosen a wood for my curved floating Panels. Olive. A great wood with warm tones. I can't wait to start shaping it.
