Jay, thanks so much for the comments!!  It's a work in progress and I have fallen in love with hickory after this "job".  I will also look into the bumpers you're talking about, I never even thought of that.

Justin, these look mighty nice.  The way you have laid out the grain pattern is very appealing to the total cabinet building and shows that you have a keen eye for design.  Just wait until you add the poly finish, that hickory grain will just pop out at you. 

Hickory is the wood of my choice when building any clear coat cabinet.  You will in the long run be glad you did not add any stain.  I like the use of a full long piece of lumber and making the drawer fronts a long continued grain running in the order they were cut.

The roll outs are a great added custom feature too.  Something you might like to add  on the rollouts.  There is cabinet hardware that has a small bumper that in like a small roller that you can add to the pull out that will actually push out the door that insures you that the rollout slide does not ding the inside of the door.  The scres onto the roll out front corners.  Not being picky and is just a suggestion.  Looking very  good Justin, I would put you to work for me any time....just call and I'll pick you at the airport.
