Thanks! It’s imperfect, but fit for the intended purpose and looks nicer than the table it’s on so… winning?

That looks really good. Do you have any pictures of the drawers?

Not at hand, but they are 1/2” plywood with simple routed grooves on hardwood runners. Two of the three have little 3d printed, scalloped pen “trays”. The third is deep enough for most brands of 50-60 mL ink bottles.

The back is just hardboard set into a rabbet, so this thing looks neat against a wall. It’s also heavier than it looks, lol, and with plenty of, umm, “character”.

What do you keep in it?

Looks great!

Fountain pens, mostly. Wouldn’t be hard to repurpose into a small machinist’s chest, though.
