    3 drawers,full extension slide, bought a whole bunch of a brand called Tru-trac. will be all solid maple(maybe some other assorted white hardwoods) machine dovetailed drawers.
    I purposely made it a bit on the beefy side, as I like the look.
    Solid cherry flat panels, 3/8th thick.
    Top will be solid 1 inch cherry, back will be 1/4 inch ply, whatever I have around, drawer bottoms will be either 1/4 inch birch ply with a support down center, or 1/2 ply with no support. I have to check the shed, I believe I have a large piece of ply, just not sure what thickness.
    All mortise and tenons.
    I need to sand everything, rabbet out for the back, and turn around the front stretchers, as I put the bad sides foward(didnt use backer board when I cut the tenons, got a bit of tearout on 2)
    This is where Im at.
    Im way ahead of my build schedule, nice for me.

    Ive accepted a space, 940 sq feet, 20 minutes from my home, for a new shop.
    The current tenant isnt leaving until end of march or april, and the landlord wont throw him out, its a friendly rental, so Ill have to wait until he vacates.
    400 amp service, Ill be able to get a larger jointer and planer.

    This might be my last project in my garage, or next to last.
