That looks really good, Ken! There's nothing like having a place for everything, then having everything in its place - great job!

Great work, Ken.

One question: since hardware is sooooo heavy, what did you make the bottoms of the drawers out of and how far inset is the bottom piece to the rest of the drawer?

Drawer bottoms and dividers are 1/4" hardboard. Dadoes for the bottoms are 3/8" deep on all four sides. There are three rows of compartments even though the last pic only shows 2 of the rows. The drawer sides extends a good 2 1/2 - 3 inches past the last compartment to keep the drawers from tipping out when extended. HTH.

Wow, that is beautiful! Hope to tackle something similar some day, after I get better at making birdhouses!

Hardware cabinet? When I saw the first picture I thought it was a nice sock or underwear drawer for the bedroom. It's a very nice looking hardware cabinet.

You South Carolina Ken's are sure raising the bar for the rest of us. Nice looking cabinet Ken. Better suited for jewelry than screws,nuts, and bolts though Pat

Great looking cabinet. You've figured out how to make pine look good.
