More Shop Storage

I have been meaning to build a storage unit for under the lathe for some time. I got the delivery of the maple for the closets so I decided to use some of it to build the storage unit. It’s a simple 6 drawer chest. I assembled the carcass today and milled up the drawer stock.

Today it was 104 here in Vegas so I stayed in the shop most of the day. I managed to get the drawer stock mortised and two drawers assembled. I love working with maple, it’s so stable. But I’m afraid that can’t be said about plywood these days. I avoid using any plywood at all because it is so unstable that it’s impossible to get plywood that doesn’t potato chip after it gets to the shop. The one place I still use it is for drawer bottoms but when it goes wonky it makes drawer assembly a nightmare. Years past it was easy to get plywood that was really stable. Apparently they were forced to change the glues they use which makes the plywood warp. Progress.

I had built cabinets for under lathes . Finally gave up and stacked them behind me as to much dust in drawers. This is three sets of drawers built for specific lathes.

Finished the tool chest. I used the ceramic finish again. I really like the ceramic finish. Dries in 15 minutes and very hard finish.
