These are amazing! Great job. What size drawer slides did you use? Full extension, 3/4 or 1/2. Also, how much weight are they rated for? Yours look so good, I want to try and make some as well!

Thanks Tania! I don't have any instructions, but these were rather simple. Everything was made to fit in the existing cavity in the wall. There are two  components to this - the drawers and box/shell that hold the drawers up. The Shell is literally a box - 4 pieces of 3/4" plywood. 

As you can see in the picture the drawers are also a box, with an additional support down the middle. I cut a dado 1/4"-1/2" from the bottom of each drawer to support the 1/4" plywood sheet that acts as the drawer floor. Remember that the drawer floor dimensions are the interior dimensions of your drawer "box" PLUS the depth of your dado. So In my case, my drawer width was 2', and my dado's were 1/4" - so my plywood floor was 2'+.25"+.25". Each drawer's width is the same as the interior width of the Shell. Since each drawer has two drawer-slides (left side/right side) you must also subtract the width of the drawer slides from the width of the drawer. If you do everything right the drawer + 2 slides will fit snuggly inside the cavity.
