This isn't much. the only reason I am posting it is that I hardly ever get to use my shop for what it is meant for and even this thing was fun. I just never have any time for anything it seems. a few months ago a friend asked me if I would make his box a little less horrible. I said I would when I had time and finally did it. It was something his wife got him for Christmas. She thought it was an antique for some reason. It was really the most useless box I ever saw. 10 drawers, all 1/2" high. and they weren't even separated by anything. so my friend asked for dividers.
I re used the top and the drawers, Even though I thought the drawers were ugly. The point was to fix his box and not make a whole new one. I made all the parts out of cedar. the dividers are a different kind of cedar than the sides. I took the bottom out of one of the drawer and tacked 2 together so at least one of them would be taller.
So there is a few hours of wood working. He gets to put on the finish if he wants it.
I just made 2 pieces to cover the front edges. I have not attached them yet. Not sure if I like them because they stick out in front.
