another weekend, and working on the garage, again. Cut, shaped and edged the 3/4 in ply first layer, then cut and shaped the 3/4 top layer. Used small sheet, hence the three parts and mismatched backsplash. Also mounted the cab doors and drawer fronts. Need to do a better job on the drawer fronts, just have not figured out how. I tried dbl stick tape, but the drawer was slightly inside the cab so not enough pressure to stick. Oh well, slightly different spacing but it is in the garage. First three coats of poly on the top went in like a sponge. One the 6th and last tonight, but looks fine. Only three more uppers and some french cleats and I will be done.
jeepers, had trouble loading the photos, but I think they are in now….. tablet challanges.

On occasion I have drilled the holes in the drawer front for the handles. Then when I have the drawer lined up and in place, I screw the front on through the handle holes. then pull the drawer out and secure it from the inside and take the screws out of the handle holes.
Cabinets look good, lots of storage. I like how you left a spot for the chairs.
Good Job!

Tks, the fronts were drilled, did not think about screwing them on from the front first. Will give it a go next time. The space for the chairs was due to one of the first cabinets being slightly out of square, but the open shelf works nice.
