Construction

Make the corner trim five times the outside width of the box. Remove the covers. Turn one large box on its side and remove the upper side. Do the same with the second, third, and fourth large boxes. Place the second box on its side upon the open side of the first box, keeping the open side of the second box at the top, and place the third upon the second, and the fourth upon the third, in like manner. Upon the open side of the fourth box place the fifth box on its side without having removed either side, keeping all the cover or top openings facing the same way. Fasten the five boxes together by nailing two strips placed vertically across the bottoms about 2 feet apart, to hold them together while the corner trim is put on. Turn all five boxes on the reverse side and nail on the corner trim, keeping their upper ends even with the top side of the last box added. Turn the stand right side up and nail on the top, allowing its edges to project 1 inch over the outside face of the trim all around. Place the two smallest boxes in the lower compartment, one at each end, and set the partitions in place, one against the side of each drawer, and nail them fast. Fit in the middle drawer and fasten the drawer pulls on. Put on the facing strips at the ends and remove the temporary strips from the back.

Note. In the illustration one drawer is removed, showing a strip against the end, the thickness of the corner trim projection over the face of the compartment, which acts as a guide for the drawer. It is the same at each end of the stand.
