More Drawer Progress
I’m always surprised how much time things take. The drawers have taken a surprising amount fiddling and fitting. But they’re done and ready for fronts.
Drawers installed with guides.
Milling the drawer bottom materials.

Now, on to the drawers.
I’ll be using drawer glides for this drawer.
