Bob meets with Ryley to discuss the site-built, built-in cabinets of �� Birch plywood. The cabinets were all precut in the shop before being transported to the location. Back at the shop, Ryley shows Bob many of the cuts and jigs used in the crafting of the cabinets. Then shows Bob some of the techniques used to make the panel doors using a router, table saw and radial arm saw with a dado blade. They create mortise and tenon joints to hold the frames of the panels.

Bob confers with carpenter Bob Ryley as he installs built-in cabinets in the loft of the Habitat for Humanity house in Yonkers, New York.

Bob tours the house with Robyn Peterson, our interior designer. She points out the built in cabinets around the bar in the den, then takes him shopping for fabrics to start brainstorming for final touches. She suggests natural colors and fabrics from sisal rugs to earthy colors in faded linen and historic reproduction fabrics.
