I love this bin so much I built a large one and a small one. The small one is for the bathroom. The large on is for the kitchen. This is actually a rather easy build. I used mdf. I grooved the front panel on the large bin to add character. This was built from Ana White's Wood Tilt Out Trash or Recycling Cabinet Plan.

Front panel
Can you give me a few more details about your grooved front panel...
did you just run the panel thru a table saw?

Grooves
I don't actually own a table saw.
I just used my router and set the depth so that only part of the bit touched the mdf.
It was just a matter of testing it until I found the right depth.
Hope this helps. :)

Size for 2
I know its been awhile, however the one you have both normal trash and a recycle bin in.. is that the same dimensions as the ana-white build for a single?
I assume the trash cans are just flipped side ways to hold 2 instead of 1?
looks great, thank you!
