You use space balls around the edges of the panel which are little rubber balls that allow the door to expand and contract so as not to split the wood. NEVER use glue and the screws are unnecessary the glue on just the corners of the frame is plenty to hold.
That table saw blade was set way too high and you shouldn't cut stranding next to the saw... I know it's for the video but you don't want to loose a finger or two.

As a new carpenter, I was making doors and I cut the center panels very snug and glued the center panel to the rails and the styles. The wood expanded and blew out all my joints. It should float, there should be a small gap between the center panel styles and the rails.

@BarberellaHome People complaining about your approach need to lighten up a bit since this is ultimately a simple means/hack to getting shaker doors done quickly for what was clearly a shop cabinet made with inexpensive materials. (As in, who cares if they don’t look perfect since they should be getting the snot kicked out of them.) BUT for any newbie watching this video looking to make interior shaker doors that are going to last: 1. Go with pocket holes OR go with grooves and tenons for rails and stiles. The whole idea of cutting the grooves is to increase the glue surface and avoid the poor aesthetics of pocket holes. Combing the two offers no real advantage, AFAICT. 2. On the topic of the glue surface, don’t glue in the panel if you have grooves for it to sit in. The purpose of the groove, regardless of whether you’re gluing the outer frame or using PHs, is to allow for wood expansion on the piece with the most surface area. Note: if the panel is plywood-which is what it looks like here-this reduces the likelihood of expansion that’s going to damage your door. 3.If using pocket holes, buy plugs to glue into the holes and cut/sand flush. Even if the holes are on the interior of the door, it looks very amateurish when people open it. 4.Don’t wear gloves when operating a table saw. 5.One good thing to note is the use of a screwdriver rather than drill for attaching the screws. This is especially important for soft woods like the pine being used. It’s all too easy to screw your pocket hole screws (what you should use here rather than what look like interior furniture screws she’s using) all the way through the holes you’ve drilled out. (Note: best bet is to attached the screws with a drill with the clutch turned way down. And don’t use an impact driver.) Even with the above, I think this video is a great introduction to how Shaker doors are made, and Barbarella seems to have great pointers for DIYers.
I’m sure by now, she lost a finger or two. The amount of stupid in this short is downright hilarious. She’s like the kid that just discovered something and is so happy to tell everybody about how she’s doing it wrong.
I wish people like this who clearly arent profficient at wood working stop releasing videos. It teaches poor habits or techniques, especially when they are safety related. I know everyone wants to be a TH-cam star, but put in your 10+ years of quality wood working first. Then come back and add value on the youtube.
You need some lessons on that table saw. Stand behind it and push the stock forward. If you are scared of kickback you shouldn’t be using it. Learn how to use your miter gauge and slots. The table saw is universal. When you figure it out it will make life easier and safer. Get a push stick. Take the gloves off. But what do I know. You’re a pretty blonde and dudes will defend you as long as they think they have a chance. 🤤
Not only are you beautiful your very talented.God bless you and keep you safe.
Wearing gloves with saws is a great way to get your hand wrapped around the blade
Good job on the product, but don’t use gloves on any saw, and don’t stand on the side of the table saw.
Dont glue the center panel, even if its MDF. It's supposed to "float" to allow the rails and stiles to expand and contract.
I was wondering if anyone else was thinking the same thing. Never glue center panel.
What do you do instead?
@@xoxrazzyxoxnot glue the center panel, because it’s supposed to float to allow for expansion and contraction
You use space balls around the edges of the panel which are little rubber balls that allow the door to expand and contract so as not to split the wood. NEVER use glue and the screws are unnecessary the glue on just the corners of the frame is plenty to hold.
@@xoxrazzyxoxyou just put the frame around it, it will be held in the grooves and wiggle around in the frame
That table saw blade was set way too high and you shouldn't cut stranding next to the saw... I know it's for the video but you don't want to loose a finger or two.
So she would stand on the side with the fence how is she supposed to see the blade????
I think what you’re seeing is the riving knife, but she still should use a push stick.

You never glue your panels inside your rails and stiles. They need to be able to move.
For plywood you use glue. If it’s a raised panel, yes use barrels.
this was an excellent video on how to lose your hands.

Hope there's no expansion..keep the humidity exactly the same in your home.
Getting the dedo cuts consistently centered is no easy task.
Great job.
Yikes, don’t put your wrists over the blade, please! 😢 Use something to push the wood through.
shouldn't use gloves on table saw!
@0170barney fabric could grab get caught and pull your hand right in. Keep your hands away from blade if at all possible.
Do the screws have enough material to screw into considering you made a groove?
Two things: I love you and... I love you. Plus I wanted to say I love you. Love you.
Nothing better than a great looking woman that can use tools and create!
But doesn't know that gloves are the worst idea ever!

It’s hilarious. If she wasn’t a pretty blonde people would be hammering her and saying things they wouldn’t say to a pretty blonde.
Great job. Where did you get that beautiful map on the wall behind you?
Gloves, cringe. No joke don’t use them.
I use dowels for shaker doors.
I suspect the only reason the riving knife is in use is because you guys don't know it's removable
Where did you get the world map artwork behind you? Did you make that?😱
Crazy wearing gloves with a table saw please stop!
No gloves, please! Great video.
Now you have the grove showing on top of the doors and drawers 👍
I want to see you put the doors on the cabinet
Where do you store the table saw?
Gloves!!! 🤦♂️
Do u have a link for the pocket hole device?
Sounds like shitin a vw dootr
pocket screws on doors??? nooooo….
Good job!
A lot of people that have there advice and corrections to spill.
Probably don’t know how to build a bird box. 😂😂😂
How can you have a southern accent and a British accent at the same time??
She’s from southern Britain 😄
What did you do about the groove opening that will show?
What type plywood is best for kitchen cabinet?
Yep. No glue and use small spacer balls to keep it from rattling and centered. 👍 #smallballs

What kind of wood did you use on rail and style
What safety glasses were you wearing ?
How'd you do the hinges?
Why pocket holes?!!!
To screw the boards together
Should've cut tongue and grooves.
This may be her first attempt at doors/drawer fronts and T&G takes a bit of practice to get correct. @@Jkcreswell
Not hating or being a jackass.... but the only thing I kept thinking was "now i KNOW she's got an electric screwdriver somewhere around there!" 😅

NEVER WEAR GLOVES WHEN ISING A TABLE SAW! please, this will suck your hand into the blade. Big no no
Wow looks amazing
no glooovveessss with any rotating blades 🫢
Enjoy your fingers while you have 'em. You need to research table saw safety. I'm not trying to be mean.
Please don't use gloves on the table saw believe me I saw people lost fingers cuz they were wearing gloves
