When we built the drawers I did not have a pocket hole jig, and I am going to make false fronts to go over the drawer boxes themselves. I have actually already glued (and pocket hole joined) 3 board together to make a panel big enough to cut the false fronts out for the bottom drawers (which are 14" deep).

Stay tuned.

I saw you had built your drawers with screws through the end grain. Just a thought, but it might look a lot better if you had built those drawers with pocket-holes on the inside so their hidden... or at least put a false front on them so you can't see the screws on the front.

Looks like a very handy piece of furniture though! It obviously holds a lot of stuff.

Thanks for posting the video, Kerry! It's always interesting to see how different people have their shops setup, their Kreg Jig setup, and different approaches they take to woodworking. It looks like a challenging process joining that face-frame to the existing carcass, but it sure will look nice when you're done! Keep up the great work, and again... thanks for sharing!
