Coloured Pencil Storage Drawers pt. 1

I created this pencil storage drawer unit for almost free from my neighbour's old deck timber. I combined my love of woodworking and 3D printing to make this practical yet beautiful piece of furniture for my wife. An art supplies storage solution, Inspired by a machinists toolbox style.
I have uploaded the STL for the 3D printed pencil trays to Thingiverse

Your wife is one lucky person to have you and your talent around!!!

Thanks Jackie, I have passed that message on to my wife 😂

[@michaelmariti999]

I can't believe you only got this amount of views and subscribers. You definitely deserve so much more! You just earned another one! :) Keep it up!

[@preececraft4796]

Thank you. I really only started posting regular videos a few months ago. I can honestly say I neglected the channel for a while. But thanks for the encouragement. Appreciate it.

[@the250mikec]

Right on👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@preececraft4796]

Thanks 👍

Well, so beautiful! I hope you left the handle where it was. I think it is fine. I wish I had the ability to make one just like it but I would want a drawer for my neocolour crayons as well. Your wife is very fortunate to have such a capable handy husband!

[@BlackmerStudios]

Great functional project! I with others, making the bottom larger drawer with one or two false front dados and extra handles would balance the look. Thanks for sharing!

[@preececraft4796]

Thanks for watching… I have decided the false drawer fronts win. I intend to post a short video with the results…

[@berniesr]

Great video I enjoyed the re-enactment very funny. I would be inclined to add a groove and make the bottom draw look like two for balance

[@preececraft4796]

Glad you enjoyed the video. It’s about 50:50 on people saying to add the groove/s or not.

[@oldwagon-pens]

I think adding the shadow lines would balance out the last drawer.You did a beautiful job on this.

[@preececraft4796]

Thank you… I think it’s unanimous, adding shadow lines…

[@AutomailUser]

I'd add a couple grooves and more handles to the bottom, but otherwise you did a wonderful job!

[@preececraft4796]

Thanks… I see you’ve already seen the upgrade.

[@nickh2519]

Execellent project, and a nicely produced video, thank you for sharing. A second (and or third) handle would definitely improve the look of the bottom drawer! All the best

[@preececraft4796]

Thank you very much!

[@MichaelCarroll]

Very nice! It's a great idea and you've employed some very inventive solutions!

[@preececraft4796]

Thank you very much!

[@drawholic]

How great project! '~'b

[@preececraft4796]

Glad you like it!

[@wendywhitter2768]

I would love a pencil box like that. Definitely put a couple of groves and extra handles. So,so jealous of your wife. Why can't my husband make me one..😀😀😀

[@preececraft4796]

Glad you like it. I keep telling my wife she’s lucky to have a husband that makes her things😂

[@timothyoutman7427]

Very nice, my daughter could use one of these. Maybe two more handels making a set of three evenly spaced. Might be no need for a shadow line even 🤷‍♂

[@preececraft4796]

That's a great idea!

[@coulterbruce]

An actual pencil "case".

[@preececraft4796]

😂

[@walter111]

Construction plans?

[@preececraft4796]

This is something I can look in to doing.
