don't need all that frame work as most of it can be done with veneired plywood or particle board.

is just as strong but lighter without all that framework. only need the framework for the front end to support the doors & for the drawers.

can use pocket screws for the front framework & you would not see them from outside of the cabinet. can use biscuits with wood glue in slots in the plywood & frame to bond together. any nailing would either be from the sides or toenailing on the inside.

yes you do as your router will do biscuit slots. the biscuits can be bought at a hardware store or home improvement store.

as long as can use 1 cutter at a time & is as thick as a biscuit then yes. if have a table saw then can use it to make slots. seen norm on the new yankee workshop tv program do that.
