    Nicely done, did you work with a set of plans? If so, where can I get a copy?

    I had no plans. Basic size for the large box is 20"W X 17"H x 11 1/2"D.
    Drawers are 2 1/2", 2 1/2", 3"high.
    1/2" stock for box and 1/4" for the drawers.
    The small box is 20"W x 14 1/2"H x 9 1/2" with (1) less 2 1/2" drawer.
    I used maple but would recommend a lighter weight wood or a nice plywood.
    The dovetails are over kill but I was looking for a winter project as much as I was making a range box and had always wanted to try my hand at hand cutting dove tail joints.
    If you want to do the dove tails watch some of the YouTube stuff to see how to do it.
