Experiment with 30in top to mid conversion was successful. Diablo steel daemon blade cuts it like butter. Here what corner with cut off top looks like: D3 printed transitional piece to fill opening and connect with round holes that are in the bottom corners of unit: Full 3 unit stack, 15...

Attaching STL files for the part to label drawers. It consists of part that clicks into the handle with slot for cardboard, with optional inset that has Lego compatible studs (to easily attach Lego tiles with labels) Print holder part on the side and insert with studs up, this way no support needed.

Will post my updates here in case anyone will have the same idea as I could not even find good pictures of cabinets inside before. I have decided to go with menards/Masterforce route and try both 36" drawer swap and 30" top to mids. While inspecting it at the store I found out that drawer slides...

US general has full aray of mounting holes as well. Just needs rivet to fix in place. Will miss latching functionality too.

Have tools and skills but no time for this... Trying to find least effort solution.

Hi, I am looking to build budget friendly expandable shallow drawer array for parts storage. Used lista/vidmar in my area are hard to find and not possible to accumulate the same size with drawer sizes I need. Considering choosing tool cabinet/garage drawers from big local store (or easy to...
