Storage drawers in a bed, how? |

I'm thinking along the lines that you are.
Put dados in the runners/supports that run the length of the bed. Drill them for lag bolts. Put perpendicular runners (for supporting your drawers) across, seated in the dadoes, and screw them into place. You'll still be able to take it apart.
Through nuts and bolts might be a better choice if it'll be taken down regularly.

It looks alot like my sawbench that has a 2x6 top. As for the holdfast, I use my booted foot. Before I built the bench, I tested stacks of lumber to determine a comfortable height for boot holding. It has worked well. Any board that wants to move gets a single C-clamp on the opposite end. Good luck with your bench.

I use a cheap floor standing metal cabinet with a door and multiple shelves. Your glue, finishes, and solvents will add up quickly. Although it's not a fire resistant cabinet, i do like the idea of it being metal and enclosed. You can probably find something that will work for minimal costs if you attend a few estate sales in older neighborhoods. I think I paid $15 for mine. Money well spent if you have the floor space.
