Im looking for an idea here.
this small hall closet, is a mess constantly, and we can never get anything off the back of the shelves.
I really need a project, Im going through woodworking withdrawal, spent the last few days making toy cars and cutting boards.
The walls are 60 year old plaster walls.
so I got to thinking, instead of just trying to attach wood to attach full extensions slides, why not just build a plywood cabinet and insert it directly into the closet. My thoughts being, the walls in that closet are so uneven, not plum top to bottom, bumpy, lumpy, making an insert cabinet will eliminate any frustrations I might have trying to hang drawer slides evenly. Besides, I wont have to paint the bottom part where I put the sliders, as the plywood would look much better.
Im only installing pullout drawers the bottom 5 feet of the cabinet, higher wont make sense.
any thoughts?help
