Neat idea. I like it, though it looks like you forgot to adequately beat on the top one with a hammer lol.

Fastener drawers complete. Next up, one for the wrenches. Just be careful when you get around to the knives, shears, and saws drawer.

i have seen something similar to what I’ve done with open-ended wrenches. I think something was welded onto them. A large saws-all blade would make an impressive drawer pull!

I’ve actually been thinking a bit about this since you wrote this comment…I ruined 6 bolts out of 15 learning how to do all this. So that means I either have to buy a few more bolts or get creative. Maybe I can label the electrical stuff drawer by using large wire nuts as knobs, and my painting supply drawer could have a paint can opener with the offsets tapped into it. I have a nice rolling toolbox for most of my “tools” so this desk is mainly specialized tools and supplies.

My drawers are, automotive stuff, General hardware, gardening, painting / drywall, plumbing, electrical. Feel free to toss out any viable suggestions.
