Evening all,
I finished the drawers for my parents kitchen awhile ago, but just got around to installing them along with some drawer fronts. Working on a kitchen 3 hours at a time two days a week makes for a long project....
I never did figure out how the Blum full extension drawer slides were supposed to work according to any instructions I could find, so I just built a box and then dead reckoned how to build the drawer based on real
measurements.

I went to install two drawers in a cabinet and noticed, opps, guess what is missing?

Ayup, forgot the centre divider... Pocket screws to the rescue.

I have some of the doors and fronts on now, notice the door on the far right, it opens to a full height lazy susan. It is one piece top to bottom, it just looks like there is a separate drawer on top.

Another 100 years and I will be done :).
