Drawered Up

 

As you can see from the side facing you, I have the drawers now installed in my workbench and I am very happy. It will probably take me quite a bit more time to organize everything into the right drawer and make some dividers for them but it will be a labor of love at this point. More than likely, this will be the last project I'll work on in the garage until possibly next spring so the drawers will have to wait for a good workout. 

You might notice the square frames on top of the work surface. I left them there to demonstrate that I do make mistakes. Those frames constitute the top inch of the larger lower drawers. For some reason, the dimension on my story stick that I used to calculate drawer heights and gaps, was written down wrong though it measured exactly right on the stick. As you might guess, the dimension was an inch larger than would fit in the allotted space. Fortunately this was an easy fix as I could just run each side of every drawer through my table saw and lop off an inch of material. Within 15 minutes, I was back to installing the remaining drawers without issue.
