Overall Construction
This project uses sheet stock for the case, dado and rabbet joinery, a face frame and overlay doors. The trays are mounted on full-extension side-mount drawer slides. Mastering these skills allows you to move on to many different projects such as: shop cabinets, a bathroom vanity, book cases, dressers and more. You can apply the skills learned in this class to many different projects for your house and shop.

Making Drawers or Trays
Drawers take a lot of abuse, so it’s important that they’re solidly built. The trays you’ll learn to build for this project are very robust. Working with full-extension drawer slides means getting the drawer box exactly the right size. Jimmy has great tricks that’ll help you with this and avoid measuring. Installing the slides correctly is critical and, again, Jimmy has a smart approach to making this easy.

Project Design
With multiple pull-out trays this is a versatile cabinet that can be used anywhere. It’ll provide a lot of excellent storage in your shop, laundry room, game room, office, etc. Careful attention was paid to creating the doors.
