I would really love to win this book, as I am soon to embark on a project with numerous draws and doors.
It would also be great to learn how to make curved, tapered and hidden draws.
In the process of building kitchen cabinets for parents. This would be a great addition to help me get my custom cabs done right.
Great book! Thank you for this give away and all the great articles you publish.

This would help me out since I have just started making my own shop cabinets and would like to see where I am going wrong lol
I've been looking to build a dining room set for our growing family, part of which will involve building a hutch with 4 drawers and 4 doors. I've flung the dovetailing videos on this site by Mr. Are very helpful, but this book would act as a wonderful reference.

Please add me to the list as well. It's almost never too late to get good information.
I would also love to have the book.
Yes, I would like to win this book. Over the years I have enjoyed Andy Rae's articles in Fine Woodworking.

Hey, I need a book like this!
I enjoy Andy's writing. Add me to the hat!
Book would be great
I have Andy's "The Complete Illustrated Guide to Furniture & Cabinet Construction" book and have learned much from it; would love to read his take on Doors and Drawers, too.
Good Books are always nice to have!
I love reading books, especially on woodworking. Put me on the list too.
Would love a copy, thanks.
The odds of winning are better than the lottery and cheaper also.
With eleven passage doors to build, this book may give helpful information.
Thanks for the chance to expand my modest library.
Getting tight full insert drawers is not easy. This book should be a good reference in anyone's library.
I should put the books down and keep building. But there's so much to learn and so little time.
I'll give it a try
This is just what I need to get started on a major kitchen project.
Thanks for everything you do for woodworkers.
Hi - I am a drawer from Tom's latest project. He left his laptop out in the shop and I had to sign him up for this. I mean, just look at me. I am not quite square in any direction and my joints are more wobbly than his old knees. The poor guy tries hard, but he could really use the help. Uh oh, here he comes and it's time for finishing. Maybe if he gives me a rubdown with some nice shellac, I will feel a little better.
Thanks - Drawer #4 in the changing cabinet project.
Thanks for a chance to win.
My bribery check is in the mail. I look forward to winning.
If you saw my work you would probably send me the book as a charity case. Thanks.
My wife wants me to build cabinets for our kitchen remodel. I'll need all the help I can get and Andy's book might make the difference between my wife thanking or resenting me.
I would love one copy of this book.
Put me in, Coach, the hat that is!
Keep up the great work w/ FW & FH.
Thank you for the opportunity!
looks like exactly the book I need at the moment.
This would be a darn good reference for my how to library.
If it would help me to design and build a door to keep my twin 3 year old boys in their room then I'm in!
How to books are not only a look into the past but a look into the future. You can gain knowledge from each one you read even if it is on the same subject. There is always a tip or or solution to make one a step closer to become a better craftsman. Thanks for the chance to increase my library for free!!
I think it would be a great boost to my wood working skills.
Just what I need! Since Hurricane Ivan flooded our home I've rebuilt a number of cabinets -- all but the doors and drawers.
Sounds like a Great publication.
This sounds like a great addition to anyone's library. Thanks for this opportunity!
I could use this.
This would really help me. My doors are terrible!
If I could win that book, I might get up the nerve to build Mr. Rae's beautiful tool chest.
Garage storage, here I come!
This would be a great book to hone my drawer and door making skills. Nothing like drawers that close smoothly and doors that hang right.
I will probably buy this book if I don't win it as I am in the middle of a project that will have two drawers and I really could use the professional's tips and experience helping me to build them. Thanks for the chance to win and for all of the great books I already have as well as the magazine. I have almost every issue of FW since the beginning.
Most piece of furniture either needs a drawer or a door with few exceptions. Anyway once you master the skill, the sky is your limit.
I would love to win a copy of this book, count me in. Doors and drawers are so challenging I would love to learn more.
