Since my first foray into using the lathe caused me to not easily find some of the lathe tooling I had bought..I made it a priority to get the planned drawers built for the lathe cart. That way I have less random boxes of lathe tooling/items all over the garage and have a chance to find it all in one spot when I go look for them. That not only gets a few more random boxes taking up space 'gone', but will make it a lot easier to find the tools when I look for them. I was happily surprised how much extra space I still have in the drawers, that should give me plenty of space to grow the tool set over time. As I use it more, I will also better understand the organization I need to keep for all the tooling.
The two bottom drawer wood came with painted sides, and since I did not have as much of that as I thought, I just used some 3/8 warped plywood for the two small drawer bottoms. Then had to add in a stiffener board to hold the bottoms up, as even with the ton of nails along the edge, it was still warped enough to go down and scrape on the drawers below them. Now it should all work great.
