Spent today and yesterday working on the drawers for the left shop cabinet. I got all of the drawer glides installed and the drawers themselves made. Drawers are made of 1/2 inch plywood, simple box construction. Just have to make the drawer fronts. Not sure which I will use, most likely MDF, just depends on how heavy it is. I have both materials available. Note, one side is constructed using traditional face frame bracing and the other is utilizing the the Euro method. I am going to be building my kitchen cabinets and I used a bunch of different constructon methods on these shop cabinets to familiarize myself with the methods used etc. Here is a link:

Thanks Roy and thanks for letting me know. Helps to publish it to the site :). They look bad in this state but when the fronts are on they will look much better. Interior f the drawers are all plywood sanded smooth.

Looks like a good cabinet Cory. I like the MDF but the weight is so annoying.

Thanks Richard & Bernie. Richard, I know what you mean about the wieght. We will see how heavy the drawer fronts are, plywood may end up on them.
Thanks
