Are those drawers in front? I can't quite tell from the picture.
Looks good!
Yes, those are drawers in the front, 14 of them total, (6) 3" high,
(4) 4", & (4) 5". Since they have 1/2" bottoms, the effective depth
is 1/2" shy of the height
I love all of the drawers. Congratulations, Pat
Thanks, Ive always wanted to build something like this, and finally
found the time and inspiration for them.
How much did you pay for all?
Thus far for one bench, and im bulding two of them…(prices may
vary in your area), and these are just approximate prices.
$130 on steel ($90 for the 2" tubing, $30 for the angle iron, + cut
charges)
$100 on plywood ($40 for the top, $40 for the drawer sides, $20 for
the drawer bottoms)
$7 on eye bolt drawer pulls
$30 on finish
$20 on gas getting the stuff
So about $300 or so thus far for one bench. I guess the only down
side to this, is the amount of time it takes to build one of these,
especially if you lack good wood working skills and tools like me.
The nice thing if your on a budget, is that you can make a working
bench without the drawers for under $200, then add in the drawers as
time and money permit.
Right now im up to 4 parts in this series, the next couple of parts
will be making the drawers and options if you dont want to make them
yourself. Ill also address other tidbits that might make the bench a
bit more useful.
Thanks for the comments thus far, and as always ask any questions if
you have them.
