Jere Cary's Kitchen Cabinets book is pretty good on how to make simple
face-frame carcases. It also has a good section on the use of the
"story stick" as a way to make built-ins fit well.

Or - measure an octavo and a quarto volume, allow 3/4" above for your
finger, and don't go more than 30" unreinforced on a 3/4 hardwood board.
