Picked up some cherry leg blanks at Frank Paxton today, and saw this in the sales office. Pretty big stack of it.
Was thinking it might make all the drawerbox sides I need to do for an upcoming project.
The screencap of the Sketchup model shows the array of three drawers behind each doored side of the project, an entertainment hutch. Drawers are 15 deep by 23-1/8 wide by 5-1/2 tall, and the size of the alder panels makes for an extremely efficient cutting. I will only need two panels, $40 bucks plus tax, for all the stock needed for the sides of all six drawers.
I might have preferred doing these in something harder, but this is hard to pass up. Will alder drawerboxes be OK?
