Re: Storage/Tote Cart

Neat idea, and even better as you're re-purposing old field elements.

Do you plan/intend to have full extension slides so that you will be able to open the totes while they are in the drawers? If not, rather than making sliding drawers, it would be much less work and cost, and probably easier to put the totes away if you just had blocks on the side which support the lip of the tote, or shelves which support the bottom. (You might want to put teflon or similar material on the tops of the blocks.)
