Depth of Cabinet Vs. Drawer Capacity:
Cabinets may be made any depth (Measured front to back) from 12" up to a maximum of 18". The greater the depth, the greater the drawer capacity will be. Typically 8 - 9 sleeved comics will fit per inch.
In order to figure capacity, subtract 1.43" from the overall outside cabinet depth then multiply by 8. That should give you a close estimate for the number of comics per drawer.

The chest may be constructed of various hardwoods. Mixing and matching for the top, sides, drawer fronts, knobs and pegs will give a variety of interesting looks. Cabinet tops are joined using hand cut dovetail joinery. Dowel pegs may be intersperced between the dovetails as a design accent. Cabinet sides and tops are matched using butterfly joints. Drawer insides are made of high quality #1 clear pine, poplar or basswood for stability, strength and beauty. Drawer bottoms are made of aromatic red cedar to repel moths and silverfish. All surfaces, inside and out are finely sanded. Drawers are made with an almost airtight fit with insides finely sanded but left unfinished for archival properties. Drawers hold all "Ages" or sizes of comics.
