A plain IKEA dresser plus...

... some red paint, aluminum stair tread trim, handles, wheels, stickers and a Craftsman emblem.. and PRESTO! The coolest dresser that Daddy made just for him! Now my (almost two years old) son's "big boy room" will have a nifty dresser to go along with the whole racing theme I'm doing in it. He needs to vacate his nursery when the new baby comes in July. I'll post more pics when it's all completed.

Looks real good. I took the easy way out.
I actually used a real Craftsman Rollaway for my son's room. Got it with ball bearing slides and fit just right. The top drawer was too shallow so he puts misc. junk in it though. Cost about $300+.
