    What style are you going for? I designed my stand. My doors are flush. There are many ways you can go about this.. If you get 1/8" wood you can make a fake frame by cutting the 1/8" into 3-4" strips and tacking it on top of your doors. This will give it a framed look. Or you can cut the centers our (more work then I would do) and put a piece of 1/8" wood behind. You could use a bead board, or any other type of wood you would like. Or you could put that peel and stick stainless steel on it.. I could keep going on and on.. It is easier if you give us an idea of your style

    If you get a round over bit for a router and a table saw or miter box most can be done with that. for the corner piller look at top and bottom corners use what I think is a cove bit. it would be a inverse round over. You can cut it out of 1 in stock and stain to your liking. If you want it a bit more spicy looking you can use colonial casing and base. You might have to go to some one in charge if you use the terms I gave you cause the run of the mill employee will have no clue what you are talking about. At lowes they have a contractors desk that will have a trim sheet that will give you most of the names of trim. Well ours does anyway. Good luck and nice build so far. good job

    for that look in the doors , if you have a table saw , get some 1x3 pine and 1\4 inch plywood of your choice. mitre the 1x3 to size , then run a 1\4 inch groove up the middle of those pieces. ply will fit in nice and tight and you got your look.
