There are a lot of good cabinet skills in this piece. Things like dados, miters, and edge banding, as well as making drawer boxes and inset drawer fronts, which can be tricky to get just right.

The short answer is...they're not!

Ok, here's a better answer.

You're probably looking at this course for 1 of two reasons.

1. You're already a pretty good woodworker, and you want to build this specific piece because you like it, or...

2. You're looking to learn and improve through the scope of building this piece.

If you fall into that first group. Let's be honest...these plans could cost $5, $25, $90, or even $200, and at any of those prices it's going to make up for a small percentage of the actual cost by the time you factor in your materials, tools, and most importantly your time.

Our plans cover everything, to make sure that you do things right, the first time. No waste, no frustration...just results.

At the end of the day. You might be able to find a cheaper dresser plan. But you won't find a better one. And saving $40 to end up with a worse dresser, that you'll live with for the rest of your life, doesn't seem worth it. At least to me.
