https://www.facebook.com/BarnOwlWoodwork  I'm building a Krenov style cabinet and want frame and panel doors with frames that are as narrow as possible. To make the narrow frames stronger I'm wondering how much of the floating panel I can glue into the frames. The panels will be curved, so they will be laminated with a 1/8" plywood core. The plywood should restrict movement. I'm using urea plastic powder resin which also restricts movement.  If I glue the bottom edge and about 3 or 4 inches along the lower hinge side of the panel will it give support to my frame yet not be a problem if the panel expands a bit? Any other suggestions are welcomed.
