I may be exaggerating but I think your methods of accomplishing this task is absolutely bizarre and crazy. First off, why couldn't you just make a frame and panel, then apply the moulding? I don't understand why you would use solid material, route out X amount, then apply a bead board panel, then apply the moulding. Is the bead board solid or an MDF type of material? If you glue that to the solid door isn't that going to hinder its ability to move? I don't know, just bizarre. The end result looks good though.
Why didn't you just make 2.5 inch rails and stiles and use groove and tenon and glue them up? The glue sets in 30 minutes. It's a lot easier and you apply the moulding the same way.
I have answers for all. Absolutely no money, I used only the material I had available from the kitchen itself minus the panel I bought. The beadboard was leftover MDF material. Yea it's ass backwards but it's what I had to work with. It cost weeks worth of my own free labor for brand new kitchen cabinet doors.
The old doors were actually flat panel plywood, the beadboard is MDF. Would I ever do this again? Not a chance I would build my rails and stiles, profile and glue.
I like the antique finish, but all the rest of the pics are pretty much noise for this group.
