Default Best joint for plywood drawers

Sounds like you are building the "Miter Saw Station" with all
those drawers ???


Man there are some detectives in this group! Yeah, ok I'm building his
station. Because of space constraints, mine turned out to be 13' instead of
16'.

Norm recommends a basic 26" or 28" 100# class slide for those
big ass drawers. I would "stongly" recommend a 150# class slide
for the bigger drawers. The smaller "trays" will be fine but


Thanks, I'll go with 150's.

It is VERY important to get those carcases built VERY square
cause if you don't, those BIG ASS drawers are gonna give you a
fit. Use a story stick and watch your assembly.

You will need help for the assembly in my opinion. That's a
LOT of big plywood panels to deal with and keep square during
your glue up.


Breaking it down into an 8' section and a 5' section I somehow managed to
assemble it by my lonesome. Squareness check turned out A-ok after a few
adjustments. I'll post some pics on abpw of the frame so far later today.

The project on the face, seems right easy but with that large
set of drawers, you must be very accurate.

It's a fun project, so take your time and have fun.


Thanks!
