WIP Cedar tools storage drawers
Scored some Pieces of WR Cedar from an old sauna and have decided to make a set of drawers to go in my tool locker.

I got a bit of time last week, here is it dry assembled.
Just need the top and bottom frames, and dividers. (Still haven't divided how many small drawers to have)
Then I have to make the drawers.
The plan is to put on here to tidy it up a bit.
(Crowie, i have chosen as big as I can[emoji108])

Thank you Chris for the progress and the bigger photos for the old forum members...much appreciated ....the cabinetry looks very smart for the drawers....
Looking at your array of tools, I totally understand why they need to be locked up securely on base....Cheers, crowie

No dramas)
I put together the sides, but didn't have any clamps/
Seems square enough)

Great idea on using a different clamping system. More then one way to clamp wood together.

Starting to look good, it was about this time I realized I haven't allowed for a piece of steel on the inside of the door, and needed to ding 20mm somewhere(
Kept going on the drawers.

Ready to start fitting
Drawers mostly in, now for the fix.
Decided to add some thickness to the front
Then do my best to find the 20mm like this/
Anyhow, now we are up to date. I also have roped some cedar to make the drawer bases from. But still need to plane and rebate them.
