Heirloom Cabinet Doors
Build a set of frame-and-panel cabinet doors with a classic cove-raised profile. Mill stiles and rails with mortise-and-tenon or pocket joinery, then raise the panel edges on a router table using the vertical cove bit. Choose contrasting woods (e.g., maple frames with walnut panels) to make the profile pop and finish with a clear coat to highlight the crisp micrograin-carbide cut.
Raised-Panel Keepsake Box Lids
Create small boxes with lids that feature miniature raised panels. Glue up a solid lid blank, route a cove-raised edge on the underside perimeter to form the proud center, then add a delicate chamfer or bead on the top face for a refined look. This turns simple boxes into gift-worthy pieces with traditional detailing.
Wainscoting and Stair Wall Panels
Design modular wall panels for hallways or stairwells. Build shallow frames directly on the wall and insert raised panels profiled with the cove bit. Paint-grade poplar or MDF panels finish smoothly; for a richer look, use hardwood and a satin clear coat. The repeating cove detail adds shadow and depth down long corridors.
Panel-Front Headboard
Craft a bed headboard with multiple inset raised panels. Lay out a grid of frames, each filled with a solid wood panel raised with the cove bit. Scale the panel sizes to the bed width and break up the design with vertical stiles for a tailored, custom furniture aesthetic.
Acoustic Art Panels
Build decorative wall tiles that double as acoustic diffusers. Use the cove raised-panel profile to create varying panel depths and orientations within a frame. Arrange tiles in a mosaic pattern; the curved cove edges help scatter sound while adding sculptural interest.
