68 Overlander – Drawer boxes

I have used drawer side plywood to build the drawer boxes. Plywood normally has alternate layers of wood grain in different orientations to give maximum strength in all directions. Drawer side plywood has all layers of wood grain in the same direction, to give maximum strength along the side of the drawer. This means that much thinner material can be used (11mm) and with dovetail joints the result is an extremely sting and lightweight drawer box.
