Reply to comment by penguinsNJersey in Built in cabinets - difference in rough opening by 1/4". Will it make a difference for doors? by penguinsNJersey

1/8 is in that visible range also. If a guy isn't looking he probably won't see it but yes you will know it is there.... ask my brother how many times we had to cut and reweld his fender on his motorbike because it was level in mounting but the fender was crooked. So we had to mount it uneven and eye ball it in. He knew it was crooked and just couldn't live with it.....

Chances are if you are happy at the end it doesn't matter.

Fwiw I find anything larger than 1/32 to be visible. Even a 32nd is usually visible to the builder(me). I’m also a recovering perfectionist so keep that in mind.
