Tilt Out Storage Cabinet


I built this storage cabinet the end of June beginning of July 2016.

We needed place to store bird food and other bird related stuff. We also needed to store dog items related to the door of the deck which was the dogs exit to the outdoors. 

This cabinet was going in the sunroom so it needed to pass my wife’s review as being worthy. It also needed to fit behind the door to the deck which limited the size of the cabinet. I was inspired by cabinets made by Ana White and others on Pinterest. Every time I build something I learn more about using my tools. 

This cabinet is the first time I have used a Kreg jig to fasten the pieces together. Thanks Ana for pointing out Kreg to me.

I am happy with the result but I am having problems with the drawers sticking because I painted the slides. Maybe i need to sand the paint off or somehow lubricate the slides. The slides are just wooden rails with slots on the side of the draws for them to slide through.
