The reason we did it that way was because it was for a commercial customer (sub-contract on a gov't tender), who spec'd a size and colour and knew that this was a budget approach and knew exactly what they were buying (there was no misrepresentation). I have built them that way when working for someone else. I wouldn't want it myself, but I have not only seen them built. I think that what you posted and how you phrased it is very reasonable and pretty much how I feel about it. Sorry, don’t mean to sound like a crusty old fart but it seems odd to me to sit here and celebrate mediocrity when a nicer looking door is not that far out of reach for anyone with a table saw. I completely understand his eagerness to produce this type of door from a business perspective (time is money) but the end product is not something I’d care to look at in a kitchen, bathroom or on a wall unit. Stiles and rails can be cut from Pine or soft Maple and ¼” MDF can be used for the panel if you want to paint the finished product. All that’s required is a table saw that cuts straight, a sharp blade and a pair of clamps. I would however encourage anyone who is looking to build a Shaker style door to use the table saw method. With only a 3mm offset between the faux rail and the field of the door, I don’t find this door visually appealing and I wouldn’t encourage anyone to build a door this way. Looking at the completed door in the video, I’m not impressed at all.
