Good thinking but extend it a bit further to trays rather than
drawers. Bt "tray" I mean a 3/4" bottom rimmed all around with
verticals that project only an inch or two above the bottom. They
are good for dishes too.


Thanks a bunch! The bottom info I really needed, at that size then
should the frame be 1/2" Minimum? OR?

It doesn't much matter as long as it will keep stuff from sliding off the
bottom. All the sliding trays in our kitchen are rimmed with about 3/4"
because that is what I had. If I'd had 1/2" instead, I would have used
that.

Yes, I meant trays for the most part. Where the pans or bowls are
light weight I was thinking higher sides, like 4" up from the bottom,
or 4 " overall, to help keep them in.

Four inches is a drawer not a tray. An inch or two above the bottom is
entirely sufficient to keep them in.
