These dimensions are for the smaller version of Norm's Jewelry Chest. The dimensions are based on his drawing and won't make much sense unless you have the drawing at hand. I had the drawing photo copied and then altered the dimensions on the copy for use in the shop. I did not change the depth of the box, just the length and hight.
To start, in the upper left of the drawing, the view called, "Major Anatomy:
Lid, change 18" to 15". Change the length of the mirror frame to 12 3/8". Change the knob distance from the edge of the drawer from 3" to 2". Change the front base trim from 18 1/4" to 15"
On the view labeled "Side Layout":
Change the over all high, on left side, from 12 1/2" to 11". On right side change the drawer slots from 2 1/16 to 2" - 3 3/8" to 2 1/2" and the leg from 3 1/2" to 3". Under the bottom change the leg length from 3 1/16 " to 2 9/16"
On the view labeled, "Hidden Compartment"
Change the length from 16 3/16" to 12 15/16"
On the view called, "Base Trim"
Change the length of the front from 18 1/4" to 15". Change the hight from 3 1/2" to 3"
In the middle of the drawing, top. View called, "Plan view of shelves (3 required)".
Change the length from 16 3/4" to 13 1/2". In the view called, "Drawers", change length from 16 3/16" to 12 7/16". View called "Pattern for base trim". Change 3 1/2" to 3" and take the difference off of the bottom of the feet.
Right side of drawing, view called, "Dovetail layouts" Change 3 5/16" to 2 7/16" and change 2" to 1 15/16"
That's about it. Don't take my word for the changes. Check them yourself and if they don't quite add up right, proceed at your own risk.
