I love my electronics component drawers. One set was inherited from my father, and is probably close to 40 years old. But over the years they’ve been stepped on, smashed, or just plain lost.

I decided it had been long enough, and set about building some new drawers out of plexiglass.

What you’ll need:
– plexiglass
– speed square and level (or long T-square)
– razor blade
– calipers
– fine-tipped permanent marker
– acrylic cement
