Wanted a chest of drawers with Deep Drawers. As the drawers were so deep I used some scraps to fit supports to the undersides of the drawers as shown in one of the photos. I knew the drawers would be stuffed to the brim and would need to be quite strong. On the bottom two drawers I fitted three supports from scrap 1 by 4 and 1 by 6.
On this piece I didn't bother covering up all the internal pocket holes like I normally would either and it looks a bit of an ugly duckling on inside but once top is on and drawers are in you cannot see anything.
I thought the natural colored backing gave it some interest too.
Happy to share my plan with anybody who wants it.
