Soft Close, Full Extension Drawer Slides are a remarkable addition to furniture making, they are easy to install and don't require huge amounts of effort just by following a few simple common sense rules, like don't make the drawers wider than the opening of distance between the 2 slides and take time to make install of the drawer slides equal on each side; I have installed a few of these now and I am loving these newer soft close versions of the full extension drawer slides, they are easy to install and a joy to use. Full extension drawer pulls last long time and can carry larger amounts of weigh, and easier. Many years ago I made wooden drawer slides, I would never do that again, they are sticky, subject a lot of wear and worst of all when ambient moisture rises and the wooden slides swell, it is huge struggle to move drawers in and out, these commercial version solve all those problems.

I have to agree with you, Colin - it is a beautiful sander stand! Great choice of wood & design. Not complicated, yet sturdy & functional. Thanks for bringing us along for this build of yours & inspiring some to do something similar.

Clear video about making the drawers with the soft sliders. In my case I have problems in making to slide them fluently. All fits well, but still the soft close doesn't work for all my drawers because of some tention, I have to push some of the the drawers to close. If you could show some short about how to check the right width of the drawer and the margin that should work, it would be helpful to me. Thanks for this video anyway!

When mounting the fronts, pre drill the holes for your handles and use those holes to put in some temporary small screws to hold the face on the drawer then pull out the drawer and screw from the back, remove the temporary screws and finish drilling the holes for the handles.

A very nice-looking set of drawers that would not look out of place in a bedroom.

Hi aquesrion. I see many videos posted these days where super glue or quick bond adhesives are used. Does this not make finishi g more difficult?

Hey Colin technically the Slides are all European and they are 13mm which is slightly larger than a half of Inch i’m not being a Jerk Buddy i spent 35 years working in a ArchitectulmWoodworking Company as a Manager and we made thousands of Cabinets with that Hardware as rediculous as it sounds we Calibrted our Woodworking Machinery to thousands of a Inch on our CNC Machinery and as you know any change of temperture and humidity could change a Peice of Wood beyond thousands of a inch Technically that was out of our control and would be the Customers Responsibility Our Facility was monitored and recorded 24/ 7
