I am building cabinets for our kitchen, and I am using 21" VITUS soft-closing bottom mount drawer slides. I was wondering, can I use 3/4" material to build my drawer boxes out of instead of the 5/8" or 1/2" they say to use? I want to use the wood that I have so it matches the inside of the...

I pulled the doors off of my kitchen cabinets and I replaced the hinges. Now, when I put the doors back on I put one on and then I put the second one using shims to make a slight gap in the doors. But, when I tighten the hinge screws down into the cabinet itself, the doors go crooked and hit...

The title pretty much gives it away but how would I go about adding overhead lighting in a room that has none. The "light" switch on the wall controls an electrical outlet, so how would I go about wiring that to work on the ceiling? I've heard this is a common thing in 60's built homes and the...
