Okay folks.....some opinions here. Look at this picture. The "secret" drawer actually resides underneath the main drawer. In this picture you can see a small "handle" made of blue painters tape so one can get it out.
I'm going to make a handle for that secret drawer. Here's the catch and my solution. You have to reach through that narrow horizontal opening to grab on to the handle to remove this secret drawer. A round knob might look okay and be conventional but my meathooks are large enough that grasping a round knob through that hole is cumbersome at best.
So here's my suggestion. I will turn a disc out of blackwood.....cut it in half and screw/glue it to drawer in the vertical plane just like the little piece of blue painters tape except it will be thicker. Thus you should be able to grasp it easier since the thumb and forefinger will both be in the horizontal plane.
Any suggested alternatives?
What about materials? I have a small amount of blackwood, plenty of walnut and maple. The drawer is made of maple. The main "box" is walnut.
Give me some opinions please!
