Eclipse Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Anybody that wants to make one of these cabinets, it took 9 sheets of 3/4" 4x8 birch, 2 sheets of 1" 4x8 birch (for the sides), 2 sheets of 1/4" luan for the back, and some 5/4" pine for the cleats. The doors were originally plain, I just recently added some 1/2" pine to it to make it look like panels. It all screws together so it is easy to assemble.

How long did it took you to built it? Is the long boxes full?? Is the shelves not sagging?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Thanks. It took me around an hour, but I have a fully loaded construction shop so it makes it a little easier to do. It doesn't sag one bit, I have a divider on every shelf staggered to support the weight, and it hasn't sagged since I built it in 2007. I even disassembled it and put it back together when I moved last year. And all the long boxes are full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 1 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I'm envious of you guys who build such great things like that on your own. Id end up missing a few fingers or worse if I attempted to build this. I'm just not a handy guy with power tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
