While it isn’t quite done, I’m about 80% complete with the companion chest to my tool cabinet. The carcase is completed and together, the back panel is done and ready to mount, and the drawers are all cut and dry assembled. I need to finish sand the drawers and glue them togther. Some coats of finish and drawer liners and it will be ready for tools. Should add some bonus shallow drawers to what I have already. 
The drawer fronts of the chest are figured maple to match the top drawers on the cabinet.

Great job. The chest is not only functional but it looks good as well.

Love the figured maple – can’t beat a quality piece of timber.
