Since I'm going all out on these cabinets, I've also decided to go ahead and build new backs for each one.

If you are wondering why, let's look at the original backs:

All of the extra holes that have been put into these backs really detracts from their appearance. While I know that no one will see the backs when the cabinets are finished and in my home office, I would prefer that they have no holes so that the cabinets can be sealed as they were intended to be.

I can use a lesser grade of plywood for the backs, at least. I will have to fill in the original holes used to fasten the backs to the cabinets, as they have become well worn over the past several decades and use multiple sizes and types of screws to hold the backs in place. I want to use one single type of screw as was done originally.
