Finally got these done as I was working on them in between projects for my fiancé.
I needed a spot to organize all my nuts and bolts that were in bags, CD tubs, boxes and various other places. You know, like everybody else. ;)
I made the boxes up using some 1x4 pine with finger joints on the corners. The dividers are some 1/8 plywood I had laying around. The whole unit is made from the 1/2" and 3/8" plywood that, again, was in the stack.
I ended up having to use two of the drawers for 1/4" bolts, with the others for bolts up to 1/2" along with a couple for misc. stuff.
Then I put it on a shelf in my "cupboard".

Great looking solution. I did something similar and for a drawer pull used some 1x4 ripped at an angle and glued/screwed on the front;

That is downright beautiful! How do you pull the drawers out?

The drawers don't slide in all the way, they stick out about an inch from the case. I figured that way I already had a hand on the drawer rather than just a knob. Less chance of it slipping.
