Re: Project Of The Day : Desktop Thermoelectric Winadors
I finished up the drawers, the faces just need taken off and polyurethaned. I'm just going to leave the faces natural color, the cherry has an awesome grain that I took advantage of when I resawed the material for the faces.
Here's what they look like... http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/6a45241d.jpg http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/4965f494.jpg And the unit closed up... http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/460518b7.jpg |

See how you can just barely see through the glass on the door?
It's a lot different than what I'm used to, but I suppose it'll make these things a lot easier for the wives to look at. :) |

What are the dimensions of the drawers? |

I like how you shaped the top drawer too. |

The bottom three drawers have 3/4" headroom which may allow an extra row depending on what type of smokes go in there. The top drawer doesn't have the headroom because there's a useless light in the roof that screws things up. |

I had to stay true to the guides in the sides of the unit. If I made the face longer, which I could have done, the bottom drawer would not sit flat when it's removed. My goal was to make them all interchangeable, but the top drawer guides forced me to make the top drawer face shorter than the rest. I had to balance the whole thing with as much reason and common sense as possible to make it as sensible as possible. In the end, the bottom 3 drawers are completely interchangable, the drawers all have flat bottoms, and it's obvious the top drawer goes where it goes. There's plenty of space everywhere, front, back, and between drawers for airflow. Overall, I'm pleased. In a perfect world the drawer glides would have been spaced the way I needed them, but at least it was close. :tu |

I do have one that the light doesn't work. It's not the connections or the led panel, it's a broke wire somewhere in the body of the unit, hence unfixable. I'll have to let that one go cheaper or bomb it out or use it for awhile or something. The light is senseless anyways, but in my way of thinking, for that kind of money, it damn well better work whether I'm using it or not. |

I finished this sweet baby up and decided to let it go in the Troop Support Auction, in case any of you guys are interested.
You can see it right here. There's some finished pics in that thread, as well. She turned out really pretty, I'm looking forward to banging out a few more when I get some rainy days. :) All the pieces are cut, they just need sanded, finished and assembled. I need to gather them all up and put them on a shelf and get them off my workbench. The shop is jam packed now that I brought the motorcycles home. That's gonna force me to build a shed now. That should slow me down considerably. :D |
