Phase 2 - Lots Of New Drawer Space

Saturday, July 20, 2013

My latest project took place in our lower level kitchen and involved building a cabinet with a lot of drawers.  Once again I built it out of Maple plywood and solids.

I assembled these with Blu-motion drawer slides which allows the drawer to close automatically when given a soft push and causes them to close nice and slow and quiet.

The cabinets are all built and finished and Christi couldn’t wait to fill the drawers.  When the project was getting close to being done she kept asking, “Can I put stuff in the drawers now”.  She is so excited she even offered to put the drawer handles on.

A friend from church, who is a great craftsman, put the Formica on the top before I installed the countertop on the cabinet. Once that was on I installed the back splash.

The finished product along with a picture we had taken when we were in Florida in 2007 completes the look.

Time to start Phase 3! These next cabinets will hold Christi’s cake and baking supplies, along with the multitude of photo albums she assembled over the years.

 

Thanks for looking!
