NON-wargaming post - (sorry) - Kitchen Utensil drawer tidy.

Remember I mentioned I scored some brownie points with SWMBO - here's what I made with the 5mm MDF 'off cuts'...


Simple box construction,  from 5mm MDF and PVA wood glue. I obviously measured internal space of the drawer to figure out how big to make it ... its approx 5" high, 19" deep and 38" wide...
MDF needs a primer before painting as the wood is is very absorbent. Once dry, two coats of an enamel gloss finish paint were applied. This was left over paint from our house build some years ago...

7yr old daughters foot for scale ;-)
It does make the drawer noticeably heavy now, but with a little care in use,  I think its fine and everything now goes in, in a reasonably tidy fashion! This was all just in 'loose' before...


I'm quite chuffed it worked out, obviously all that previous practice with MDF has paid off ;-)

Normal service will now be resumed!
