The cabinet is made almost entirely from birch plywood, which gives dimensional stability at a
budget price. The main carcase is 3 4-in.-thick plywood connected with finger joints.

Build a big box. The main body of the cabinet is connected at each
corner with 12-in. finger joints cut on the tablesaw (left). Rabbet the
front and rear for the panels. Glue and nail the front panel (above),
but attach the rear with screws for interior access.

Next cut makes the two main doors. Tack two strips of wood across the cut line as shown. Then
set the sawblade to just score the underside of the strips. In this way the panel is cut in half but
wont bind on the sawblade.

parallel, I used the same spacers when cutting rabbets in the drawer sides and when
attaching the strips to the cabinet.
On a router table, create a guide channel
the same width as the drawer sides comprising two outer guide strips, two center
strips of wood the width of the straight-cut
router bit, and two equal spacers to go
above and below the bit that center the
drawer side over the router bit. Clamp the
outer strips to the table, remove the spacers
and the center strips, raise the bit to 14 in.,
and cut a groove until just before the finger joints at the front of the drawer.
when all the grooves have been cut, use
the spacer strips from the router table and
the laminate spacers used earlier when
stacking the drawers to establish the location for each maple drawer runner. Screw
the runners to the sides, and the central
divider and the drawers are hung.
with the main cabinet construction complete, make and attach custom hangers for
each tool using scraps of plywood.
I finished my cabinet with two coats of
oil-based sealer that were sanded with
P320-grit sandpaper. Then I wiped on a
couple of coats of tung oil.
The cubbyholes and the bottoms of
the drawers were covered with industrial
rubber-backed floor covering, available
from home centers. It comes in many colors
and gives excellent protection to edge
tools. The final step was to attach pulls to
the drawers and doors, and stout handles
to the outside of the cabinet. These are a
great help when you and a friend lift the
cabinet onto the wall-mounted part of
the cleats. Install all of the tools and then
start putting them to use.
Install the upper shelf and gallery. Cut a dado on both sides of the cabinet and
install the upper shelf. This gives the carcase extra rigidity. After routing the dadoes
for the upper and lower shelves, test-fit the gallery and then glue it in.
