I had a desk in my shop that filled up with stuff rendering it useless. So I decided to design and build a more appropriate storage unit that included a desk type tray that slides in and out. This is a convenient area to work on pyrography or sit down to change chuck jaws.

After many hours of design deliberation and more than two weeks of flat work and a couple of days designing and turning a bunch of knobs, here is the final result. I think I will be happy with it and I gained a little more floor space since the desk was 30" deep and this unit only 18" deep. Now I just need to decide what will go into which of the 12 drawers.
