More Drawers?

It has been almost a year since I built drawer boxes for the cabinetry in the River House. Today, I started another batch of four that will be used inside one of the cabinets in my office to store camera lenses and tripods. Assembly will require Jeanine’s assistance in her role as “Glue Girl.” The lock miter joint I am using requires that all eight corner surfaces have glue applied simultaneously. Working alone, I would have to do them all sequentially and this would take long enough for the glue to start curing. Working with Jeanine, we can cut that time in half. It was nice to be in the shop again but it is hard to get excited about building more drawer boxes. I think this batch will put me over 130.
