These • are 3/4"-thick pieces of hardwood sized to allow an Vg" gap along the sides and top of the opening. Shallow rabbets in the ends accept the sides of the drawer, see drawing and detail 'c.'

They keep the drawer from being pulled out too far and accidentally spilling what's inside. 4L FRONT VIEW BASE BLOCK (21/z" x 3") #8 x W Fh SHEET METAL SCREW 4" BARREL BOLT BOTTOM OF CAROUSEL MOUNTING BLOCK (1"x 4"BARREL BOLT VIEW SIDE FRONT/BACK 4" SASH HANDLE #6 x Vz" Fh SHEET METAL SCREW BOTTOM NOTE: FRONT AND BACK ARE 3/4"-THlCK HARDWOOD; CLEATS ARE 1/2"-THICK HARDWOOD; SIDES AND BOTTOM ARE !4" HARDBOARD Vz" CLEAT CLEAT (1/2" x a%") SIDE (5%" x 9%") STOP (Vz" x 2" - %"-THICK HARDWOOD) NOTE: CENTER STOP ON WIDTH OF DRAWER OPENING #& x 1'A" Fh SHEET METAL ^ SCREW a.f-2"' I STOP BACK A__ BOTTOM No. 35 ShopNotes 23 |
