Hmmm...so...what will the middle drawers be sliding on, once they are past the first 1" or so?

Well, er, slides of course.  It's only the carcass glue up after all . . . .

Kevin: I don't think we want to shine a light on how an engineer's mind works
. I've been switching it up in the glue department: Titebond III, Titebond HIde, and T-88 epoxy for a few of the joints that did not fit as nice as I would have liked. Enjoy the Holiday! Phil

Phil, what glue have you been using, Old Brown?

Looking good for sure, very organized as usual, an engineer’s mind at work!

Have a great 4th!

Bandit571/Admiral:  the plans call for maple drawer runners/kickers/etc and maple drawer sides. I opted for pine drawers sides so I think I can get away with cherry for the guts of the drawer compartment.  I've been scrounging the remaining scraps of cherry:

   

Went to my local sawmill yesterday (Moores Sawmill in Bloomfield CT) and picked up some nice clear pine for the drawer bottoms:

   

As Norm would say: we're gaining on it!

Hmmmm, maybe scale something like this down to size...
 

   
Comes in handy, when a drawer is pulled out too far...
