Yeah, I know that I started this blog TWO years ago… I did actually finish the drawers and put it to use in February 2014. I just never got around to posting it and I decided against putting any finish on it since it is/was shop equipment.

Anyway, here it is:

FWIW, I did dados on all four side/front and glued ALL sides of the 1/4" plywood bottom for added strength. The drawers measure 27″ × 24″ × 7″ and hold a lot. I have tried to limit how much brass and lead I keep in any individual drawer (reloading supplies) because of the extreme weights involved.

Got door handles on ALL sides and ends in order to be able to move this monster on 8-wheels. Added them after this image was taken… Heavy, heavy, heavy… My guess is north of 3-400lb, after all the cabinet is 2′×2′×8′ with my planer table on top of that.
