Long Arm thread storage
Wife got tired of using drawers for thread cone storage.
I made this for her. The pull out storage is mounted with ball bearing slides.

This is what I made. Made the frame for the ironing center from some white oak I had left over from a project. The drawers and upper cabinet are made of trim boards from my son's farm house remodel.
