A 70 cabinet
#48

Mike, here's how to fit your trim. Cut the miters on both side pieces but don't cut them to length yet. Next cut miters on both ends of the front piece but make sure you cut it a little long, maybe 1/4 inch or so. Now, fit the miter together on the left side holding tight to the cabinet on the front and side. Now, fit the miter together on the right side, the right won't touch the cabinet because the front piece is too long. Next, take another cut on the right front miter, cutting about one half the extra. Check the fit again and make another cut. When you get down to 1/16 inch or so, make very slight cuts only a few thousandths of an inch checking the fit each time. After you have a good fit on your miters, then you can cut the side pieces to length. Just don't try to cut the front trim to length the first cut, you will come up short every time.
