How to Make Drawers - Step-By-Step Guide (Metric version coming soon)
Building drawers can be intimidating. There’s a lot of measurements, options for joinery, and types of runners. To help simplify the process I’ve put together this guide. If you’ve never made a drawer or if you are looking to take your furniture skills to the next level, this guide will help you take that next step.
The guide covers the 3 most common drawer types:
Wooden Runners
Side-Mounted Slides
Undermount Slides
It shows you how to measure your materials, cut the joinery, and install the slides, so your drawers come out perfect and last for years.
Whether you’re making drawers for your workshop, home, or a client, these three methods will have you covered.
Note this guide is currently in imperial, but I am developing the metric version which should be out shortly. Join the mailing list to be notified when it comes out.
