I am thinking about building about 30 interior plantation shutters for our home’s windows. I’d like to make them from oak, or some other hardwood with 3 1/2″ louvers. I am really interested in any advice that any of you may have as to production techniques or any other tips. I’ve been looking for some articles on their construction, but have been pretty well drawing a blank. Thanks for your help

Norm on NYW did an episode showing a router template he used to make the slat slots for shutters. Very sweet.
You can probably order a tape of the episode and plans for the shutters from NYW website.
Good luck.
