Framed Inset Cabinets

Is there an easy way to have cabinets that are against each other show a 3/4" face frame on each cabinet that would create a total of 1 1/2" face frame between cabinets instead of 3" between cabinets?  But still have 1 1/2" face frame on the outside of cabinets that are on the end of a run?  And also keep 1 1/2" face frame on the top and bottom rails. 

 

For example on this attached pic, I would like 1 1/2" face frame on the left side of the cabinet next to the wall, but then a total of 1 1/2" face frame between the 2 doors instead of 3 inches.  

 

Does it have to be done by adjusting each cabinet individually?

Joey's method works if you want all of the rails and stiles to be 3/4".   If you just want either the left or right stile to be 3/4", you need to do that on the cabinet sides page of the cabinet dialog and it only shows up if your cabinet is a face frame cabinet.

Another method is to set one stile to 0" in the defaults but leave the separation under box construction as 1-1/2". For the last cabinet in a run, click the wrench so it switches to default (1-2").

Better still is to make some style palettes that copy the face configurations you need with the stiles set that way.

You can always flip a cabinet to change the side that is 0" (ctrl + F)
