Looking good now John. FWIW my opinion is for one handle.
Two just looks wrong.
Like your brass, good pickup.
Cheers, Ian"The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot.. it can't be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder it is well to add something for the risk you run.
And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better"

Wow, it's taken me 4 months to get the 1st draw done! I guess good things take time
.
The draw is 12mm Australian Oak, with dovetailed corners (which if u look carefully, I've put the tails on the wrong side!). The bottom is 6mm Australian Oak that's floating on 3 sides in a groove. I glued along the front to add strength to the long side, whereas the other 3 sides are dry.
The top 2 draws are 75mm deep, the bottom 100mm to allow for my chisel rolls.

Do I need dividers? The OCD voices in my head are telling me 'yes'...
I still need to add pencil, eraser, etc to the draw.

2 weeks after you posted, but I wouldn't use full height dividers.
perhaps some wood strips 8-10mm high to stop the bottom layer moving too easilyregards from Alberta, Canada
