Almost all drawers I have seen are like this:
the details like so:
ie, the front stretcher is cut for drawer openings with a jigsaw/bandsaw and glued back, and the drawers are given supports internally, etc.
But I was intrigued to see this picture of a desk in my kid's math book, and I was wondering how the drawers were installed, both the large ones on the left and the pencil drawer.
Is it the same construction with just an oversized false front? Could I do the same with the two drawer table above? Somehow it seems to have simpler lines than the other. Or maybe it will not look the same with two drawers...?
