Good video. Your basic idea is really smart and even if someone doesn't do exactly what you've done, seeing how you've thought about the problem and solved it is just really good to know. Your details are really good. I've made a lot of drawers. I don't think I'd 'want' to use your method.... but it's so efficient and easy that it's probably the best method for a new shop. After a few years the ones that start to wear, just upgrade them. And the ones that haven't? You've just had the use of them for many years and saved a lot of time and delay. I've made drawers using finger jointed Baltic birch, hardwood runners rabbeted into the drawers and the carcass... Better, sure; and the drawers I made 30 and 18 years ago are still like new...but I haven't been able to bring myself to the hours and hours and set ups required to make more. The drawers you have and use are much better than the ones you don't have and can't use. I think I would make sure that if the carcass sides started to wear they can be popped out, replaced or rabbeted so hardwood runners can be inserted. The best coating for the MDF slots and the bottoms of the drawer sliders that I know of would be epoxy with carbon filler. It's black . Don't need fiberglass. You can quickly sand and buff this coating with steel wool this surface until it's smooth like a mirror (if you want). It's tough and slick, but I would always use beeswax or paraffin wax (not sure what they call this stuff in Europe). With this coating I don't think you need worry about anything wearing out. But definitely your edge easing and sanding is important, otherwise the drawer bottoms will start cutting into the carcass. I would double the number the slots in the carcass. so 70mm high drawers... 75mm slots, cut another set at 37.5mm. So you could use two drawers in three slots and space above the drawer. I've found that it's very easy to over fill a drawer. Suppose you decide to have a drawer for power tools? Some of these will be higher than the drawer sides. You could drop down half a height, problem solved. Also, because my method for making drawers was so time consuming I just made as many as possible, I arrived at a standard size (too big to mention here, I also used them as art print drawers). So for my shop I just made tall carcasses with runners so I could use all the drawers. So if I set up to make a bunch of drawers I'd make as many as possible. To coat the Baltic birch I drilled a small hole in the 152 x 152cm sheets, sand the whole sheet with a pole sander and ROS. Then I hung them on a wire hook and coated them with Bona floor coating. Then I cut out all the drawers. Hope this contributes to your brilliant solution.

[@HookedonWood]

Great comment👍 thanks

[@juanmcain]

Can you tell me more about the epoxy with carbon fiber? Is it a kit or do you just add carbon fiber with epoxy? Brand name?

[@WillN2Go1]

@@juanmcain No fiber. Just WestSystems 423 Graphite Powder additive (I miswrote 'carbon filler') This makes a more slippery but epoxy hard surface. Mix it up, paint it on, then when it sets sand it, buff it with steel wool and a coat of wax.

[@bnic5776]

Respectful comment

[@ashokmoghe8035]

Interesting ideas. One question though- how does having double the slots i.e. every 37.5 mm in this example help? Won't it need new door fronts for every drawer? TIA.

[@user-ft5oo9lc9i]

Excellent drawer system, I plan to add a pull out bread board above the top drawer for tool layout. The bread board will used like an extension of my bench but 5” lower since my workbench top is a 5” laminated beam. This allows the top of the bench to be uncluttered with tools and staged work pieces while easy access. I plan to add the breadboard the same finish details as the drawer bank. Also the bread board can be pulled out on either side of the bench above each of 3 drawer banks. I will cut blocks that can be placed level with the top of the work bench to effectively expand the width of the bench top. This drawer system is so efficient and adaptable, nice job Eric.

[@matonmacs]

This drawer system is brilliant. The ability to have lots of shallow drawers relatively cheaply is a huge organizational win. Thanks so much for the idea! Merry Christmas!

[@lanceyohe6026]

Drawer system looks like it’s based off of the Ron Paulk Smart Woodshop that he designed and built many years ago.

[@EnlightenedSavage]

No it is based off Jer Schmidt. But not as good.

[@slowfinger2]

Now that's some proper engineering! I retired from the custom woodworking industry, and know a good drawer when I see it.😎 Great video, and nice shop. One tip to offer up about runners, to everyone, came from a forty year old dresser(now 70). Way back in the day, I guess we did this. Plastic Laminate on the tops of the carcass runners. Plus add 1/2" tall lam. strips on the carcass sides(above the runner, or right in the dado, like an L) and get a closer fit, no-wiggle tolerance. Can be glued up on the long strips before cutting to length. Based on that old dresser's still slick drawer action, I built a set of four tall dressers for a family friend from mahogany ply, and we know ply on ply doesn't cut it. It was a simple solution to use some scrap lam that color matched. These dressers had conventional sides and runners well spaced vertically. That was over 30 yrs. ago. There's hardly any wear on the laminate, save for a bit of the color worn off, on the leading edge. None but the faintest scuffs (1/2") on the lacquered drawers.

[@SquareRootOfMinus1]

Hey Slowf… great idea. So let’s see - plastic laminate - do you mean Formica ? Like counter-top material. And the No-wiggle fit - do you mean that you really are going for a tight fit ? As in, you want as little play as possible. So this won’t cause binding ? I was thinking of a different mat’l for drawer bottom : Eg. Engineered hardwood flooring (maybe even laminates), instead of MDF. I could put the slippery side down. But yes - you want it to be quite slippery I imagine. How about slippy tape- the UHMW tape. Or, perhaps I could use metal. Light gauge (28 Ga or so) sheet metal. What think you ? Glad I came back to this vid, and saw your new-ish comment.

[@slowfinger2]

@@SquareRootOfMinus1 Hi Bobby. Yes Formica. It's a brand name among many, but was the first. Like Ski-Do, and Kleenex. Wiggle -fit kind of means that. Not to tight but I want the drawer fronts to line up and not move from side to side so they aren't lined up on the vertical plane. The thing with wooden runners is the same wood species will wear out. You want a softer piece on the cabinet to run on, and a harder piece for the drawer. Or a least two different species. Your lam. flooring idea sounds good. There's also that slick white teflon plastic (1/2" sheets) that people make jigs and table saw jig-runners out of.

[@IlijaPavlic]

It would be easier and cost the same to just use a melamine panel for bottoms. An added benefit is that the top surface is protected with a durable plastic coating as well.

[@danhalen2889]

I did something similar in my shop but I added UHMW tape on the underside of the drawers to help them slide more easily.

[@larsonbennett5903]

Where would I get UHMW tape?

[@danhalen2889]

@@larsonbennett5903 I got it from Amazon

[@nailbanger2]

Paste wax would also be an option.​@@larsonbennett5903

[@jimweisgram9185]

​@@larsonbennett5903there are online suppliers. Google it. I made some shop jigs 20 years back, and used UHMW tape for a frictionless slide. It worked great until the adhesive on the tape started to lose adhesion after about 10 years. Taking the tape off changed the fit of my pieces. I could have replaced the tape but wasn't in the mood anymore. I just shimmed the gap with wood and used wax to cut the friction.

[@MyGrowthRings]

Very smart, Dennis. I’ve used drawers like this for years, but standardizing the size and space is a game changer. Well done. Scott

[@johnallen8680]

Simple ideas are often the best and the drawer system here is no exception.. Cheapest materials and simplicity . It also makes accurate building EASY. All you have to do is cut the MDF to the correct size and squarely. Screwing panels on to create the drawer runner slots is simple yet brilliant. No daunting router work for the beginner woodworker ! Excellent Dennis !

[@michael.schuler]

As a professional shopfitter, I had access to scrap slatwall. I used this pre-made material to form slotted case sides and avoid the need to cut multiple dados. Even if the slatwall is purchased new, this is an economical way to execute the same design.

[@makernova8160]

Great tips! I didn't even think about having the nook between the drawers and the tabletop for placing a tool that you're using - good idea! Also, I love how neat, tidy, and clean your workshop always is.

[@billparrish4385]

Really great video! I appreciate the depth you got into as to design choices and talking through them. I have some slightly different design elements on mine, based on need, available materials I wanted to use, etc., but your process definitely helped me. One idea I used that may help you is that I incorporated iron-on white melamine edge tape onto the gliding surfaces of my drawers, as a hardening treatment to make the action more slick. Mine has simple drawer boxes (no lip on a wider bottom), gliding on protruding cleats attached to the uprights, and the top surfaces of the cleats treated with the tape. If you wanted to use this harder/slicker surface treatment, you could route a mortise along the bottom edges of the drawers that is the thickness of the tape, iron it on there, and not have to change anything else. Cheers, and thanks again!

[@jonasmjanssongmail]

Another brilliant design. I do really like that my drawer slides extend fully, for my small bits storage, but if I had watched this before my first workshop drawer I’d likely saved the money on slides and gone this way instead. I like the modularity a lot.

[@I000I]

Have to admit your workshop drawers system looks better, than kitchen drawers in many homes! 😁

[@CNile-se9xw]

Your drawer system is absolutely brilliant. 👍 My wife & I are elderly so I'm keen to convert our kitchen door/shelf cupboards to drawers, & your system means that it will be affordable. My workshop is tiny, I've got a circular saw track guide, but no router or table saw, so your last suggestion making the slots with pre-cut pieces will be perfect. 👍

[@AntiViGames]

Look into an MFT, it expands the function of a track saw to the point where you can do most things with it as you would on a table saw and it's perfect for small workshops.

[@0CalAgricola]

Those drawers look really sharp and give a really professional look to your shop. Nice job!

[@alanrichardson7244]

Boy I really enjoyed the video. Great craftsmanship 👍

[@t.e.1189]

I recently made similar type drawers with a flexible system for my work van out of Birch plywood. I clear coated the drawers and cabinets and then gave them both a generous coat of waxed. They work great!

[@x01509]

Fantastic idea. One of my goals for 2023 is to upgrade the workbenches and storage solutions in my workshop and this modular drawer concept is going to figure prominently! Wonderful filming and editing too.

The forward thinking is what is admirable here. He committed for the long haul with the first bench of drawers.

[@ronboe6325]

I do have some concerns about long term wear of the MDF bottom. But I suppose if it became a problem you could trim off the proud MDF edge and glue on a strip of hardwood. Now, that said, this is a classic "wish I had thought of that!". I like this system.

[@bremg9185]

Plannen gekocht en een variatie hiervan aan het maken. De plannen missen heel veel maten, non stop scrollen en zoeken. Verder fantastisch design!

I worked at an office furniture manufacturer for years. Their lateral file cabinets were based on multiples of 3" which gives a wide range of drawer options and combinations. You've done the same thing. Excellent work.

[@cobaltwoodcraft4365]

Greetings from Texas, USA! I just discovered your channel this week and I have enjoyed what I have seen so far. I love your workbench/drawer system! The modularity is fantastic and as you mentioned it is much more economical. I do like the metal drawer slides, but this is a great system when you need to make many drawers (as I do in my current shop). I also really like your Match Fit assembly table. I just got the starter kit, so I'm excited to make one for myself as well. Cheers! - Joe

[@kkarllwt]

I run a 3/8 deep by 1/2 rabbited slot down the side of the drawers and put the strips they ride on on the inside of the case. I built a rolling tool box base in 1978 When I needed one at the factory I worked at, And, many more for my shop over the years.

[@joekagerer]

I'm fascinated by your drawer pulls. My German grandfather born in 1900 immigrated to the US in 1927 was a cabinet maker. I have a bedroom chest of drawers he built from plywood in the 1950s for my family. Your drawer pulls look almost identical to his. Interestingly I purchased a piece of Ikea furniture that has nearly the same design. Recently I made two drawers for my office and duplicated his design which was slightly tricky for a beginner. It had odd angles I had to plan in a specific order. I've never seen these pulls discussed or explained and seeing yours makes me think they may be common in Europe. Are those your design?

[@ogearbox6132]

This system is perfect for my new old shop. The cost of lumber and plywood is through the roof so the MDF is something I switched to, loved the gray scheme against the yellow pine drawer pulls.

[@Luckde10]

Adjusted the plans for the drawers mostly because I had slides left over from another project. Will use the plans for the base in other projects as well. Thx!

[@RWMoto1]

Drawer slides are amazing, I will be using this method on my next set- thank you!

[@ftownroe]

Excellent project. I particularly like the idea of using the shallow drawers since I have recently come to the conclusion that stacking items on top of each other results in a loss of efficiency.

[@apersen7658]

excellent, I appreciate that you addressed the shorter sides on the taller drawers. I too dislike stacking things, I’d much rather have many more smaller drawers.

[@EngineerMikeF]

Brilliant to have every drawer box the same, saves on confusion of many drawer box dimensions, & I can remake a drawer height later if I decide

[@peterkitchell8586]

I agree, this is a well worked out drawer system. I have used the more tempered 1/4 masonite instead for bottoms and fronts. If oiled and finished it turns dark brown and can be worked up to a fairly shiny surface if you want to put multiple coats on. No handles just a hole to pull with your finger. Yours is beautifully thought out and executed as usual.

This brilliant because it is so simple. I am designing my new workbench now and will use this design for drawers.

[@constantinosschinas4503]

Brilliant aesthetics and ergonomy. I always loved simple wooden sliders.

This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble kzbin.infoUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!

Economical solution and very practical too. In fact, it comes with durability. For seasoned carpenters, its a good design. Only flaw i foresee is that the drawer cannot be as fully extended as those with the "three stage" drawer rail mechanism. Then again, it depends on what one needs. Its a very interesting concept to mitigate cost.

Hola, enhorabuena por su diseño, conjuga muy bien la economía del trabajo sin por ello mermar la precisión y la eficacia de este . En estos días me encuentro realizando un nuevo banco de trabajo del tipo Roubo, y quisiera dotarlo de 12 pequeños cajones debajo, pero encontraba que las correderas son muy caras para tantos cajones como tengo en mi pequeño taller, más estos de ahora en el banco. Hace años ya realicé cajones de este tipo, pero eran poco precisos debido a las herramientas de que disponía por entonces, pero su sistema simplifica mucho el trabajo y da una buena precisión. Es una pena no haber encontrado su trabajo antes, habría realizado todos mis cajones anteriores con este diseño mejorado, ahorrándome un buen dinero que habría invertido en maderas. Felicidades por su trabajo y gracias por compartirlo.

[@benhatcher2603]

Very nice design and execution for a cheap and easy bench. The shelf on top of the cabinet is extremely useful and I hope that viewers use that idea in their bench projects. I wonder if some anti-friction tape like UHMW tape applied to the bottom of the ears on the drawers would hold up. The stuff I have is only 0.15 mm thick and would cost about 60 cents a drawer.
