I followed the plans almost exact except I used wire finish nails to attach the top boards and drawer faces (with glue) to give it a handmade-rustic look. I also didn't use the euro metal drawer slides but instead ripped my own out of 3/4-inch thick pieces of wood by 16" long and attached them under the drawers and on top of the front/back stretchers (I had to add back stretchers for the top 2-drawers since they weren't in the plan). I also added adjustable metal slides to the legs to give it a nicer look.
