Default guitar drawer

I made a chest of drawers for my guitars:


It’s made out of cherry. I had lots of help from a friend who’s retired.

You and/or your friend are very talented. Beautiful and looks functional too. Only problem, what happens when you get GAS. Might have to make a second story!

That is awesome, how does humidity hold up in those drawers? Are they sealed up well?

It's a nicely made piece of furniture.

Like Revel, I am curious about how you humidify the instruments, but presumably a room humidifier is all you'd need.

It might be distasteful to discuss what will happen once we die, but the nice thing about this piece is that once you're gone, your heirs will get a nice chest of drawers that can be used for other purposes. While my daughter plays instruments and is set to receive some of mine once I die, most of the specialized tools and parts I have here will be of no practical use to my wife or anyone else except for those who are as involved with stringed instruments as I am.

So nice work all the way around.
