Create the bottom rack by attaching nine 1"x3" boards to the 2" x 2" rails. The spacing between them is 2 1/2" and I used a scrap piece of 1"x3" to space them out.
Build sides by attaching the 3/4" plywood to the 2x2 legs using pocket hole screws and wood glue. Make 2 of these.
On the other side of the pieces built in step 2, attach the 1x2 trim to cover the raw edges of plywood using wood glue and finish nails.
Attach the 1 x 4 rail to the front of the cabinet using pocket hole screws. You can also add pocket hole screws through the 1x2 center divider trim to attach to the 1x4.
Build the top by joining the 1x6 slats using pocket hole screws and wood glue. Attach the side 1x4 trim to finish off the sides.
Attach the top to the cabinet. It is best to lay the cabinet on top of the top and then add the pocket hole screws through the sides and the center divider. Use wood glue.
Build the drawers using the dimensions in the schematics. There are 3 drawers with 1x6 boards and 1x8 drawer face and 1 drawer with 1x3 boards and 1x4 drawer face. Install the drawers on one side of the cabinet using 16" drawer slides. The Kreg Drawer slide jig makes it really easy and quick to install them.
Attach the 1/4" plywood back to the cabinet using wood glue and finish nails.
