Small Cabinet Shop was founded by me, Rick Crayne, a systems and process engineer and now a cabinet maker.
I applied Lean principles to cabinet planning and production in my own shop, guided by a 60-year cabinet veteren.
I created a practical system to make sketches into designs and plans.
Now, I want to help you.

32 years at a global supplier of seats, interiors, electronics, fabrics, and more. I started as a prototype technician, then worked my way up to management, project management, then global systems and continuous improvement. My teams and I won top awards!
My formal education is in manufacturing. Along the way, I learned about LEAN and how to apply it in manufacturing and engineering environments.
Is our primary goal and has been throughout my career.
Once, I commissioned a build of 12 specialized workbenches for our proto shop employees. I worked with a local, custom cabinet-maker. I was impressed with his ability to plan and assemble high-quality cabinets and dreamed about doing this someday.
My consulting business dried up and I built our kitchen with raised panels from rough-sawn Walnut.
A mentor with 60 years experience in the cabinet business found me and shared many best practices I incorporated into my processes. After learning and improving, I finally have great systems for quoting, designing, buying, building, and installing custom cabinets.
Now, I want to help others by offering rapid cabinet plans. We keep the planning process and tools in-house. You get the great results without learning software or managing spreadsheets.
