Anna I am so inspired by you. I am nearly 70 yrs. old and just bought my first power tool. A compound miter saw with a stand. My house is nearly built and I look forward to making little projects around the house. I will be sure and post pictures.
Ana, just saw your projects for the first time and I agree with others that you are an easy going inspiration. I have always wanted to be able to do my own projects. Showing hubby these things tonight! He encourages me too and at 69 years old....I just may begin! Thanks for the encouragement.
It's like you knew how fed up I am with my drawers! Bless You! And my relatives thought I had gone off the deep end asking for tools for Christmas and my birthday. Wait till I show them my drawers!From Minnesota
I've been watching you guys for a while, loving yall's work. Finally, for Christmas, I got myself power tools. I am determined to build a small custom bookshelf, and replace a drawer that has broken. Just bought an assortment of screws today, so there is no turning back.
I have done some dividers in kitchen and shop cabinet drawers and bedroom dressers using some pocket holes, but I like your idea using the channel so much better. I have turned into an organizational nut and dividers keep things so well organized.
Wow, this is a great idea. I have been looking at different pre-made drawer dividers. They can be very costly and I have also found they don't seem to be the sizes I would need for different kitchen items I need to store in a drawer. With this system all of the drawer dividers can be different custom sizes for different needs, and it is easy enough for most people to do. Great job, thanks for sharing this video and cheers.
I love how your tutorials are thorough and easy to understand, but most of all that this idea is so inexpensive to do! OMG I am now going to do this to my drawers (or at least add it to my project to-do list for now). Thanks Anna!
You are THE BEST !!!!!( I have learned so much from you - you make everything easy to understand and follow). Can you do a video on an attached pergola? I want to do one in my backyard and I so love everything you do.. it would be awesome if you could do a video on one... Love ya 😁
Love the channel idea… with use for other storage. I made spice drawer by just finish nailing 3 1/2 from outside of drawer frame. Every time I open my drawer it makes me happy to see such organization
Ana thank you so much for posting this video...After looking at 10 other videos on this subject, yours is the most simple and easiest way to do this type of project. Now I'm ready to do this !! ✨
I am not yet at the drawer stage but had not considered using a channel to align the dividers, looks nice. I love my RYOBI's, goodness I think I use them for just about everything.
I did this and it turned out great! The only thing that I wish I did differently was add a countersink for the screws so that the wood sits flush against the aluminum (I have a decent gap between the aluminum and the wood because I could not get the wood down past the screw heads). Great tutorial though and I plan on doing more drawers!
Thank you Anna. Love your stuff and great ideas. I have been wanting to add dividers to my desk drawer but didn't want to spend the money for the individual bamboo dividers. Will be doing this.
Hey Anna, you can slide the piece of aluminum on some scrap wood and just drill the holes at once instead of using the clamp. That’s what I did works great and saves a little time.
Great idea and you do an outstanding job of showing how to do this. Just something to think about if you are going to make a bunch of the brackets: measure and mark out the pieces on the stick of molding but don't cut it yet, drill all the holes and use a chamfering bit on the inside to slightly taper the inside of the hole, cut the brackets to length and then use flat head screws to attach to the drawers. With the proper blade and a little wax you can use your chop saw to cut the aluminum. As I said you did an outstanding job on this project.
@@AnaWhiteDIY I was a picture framer for a number of years and used a chop saw with a fine tooth blade to cut the aluminum frames, a little wax on the blade to ease the cut.
The nice thing about this design is that you could empty the drawer, take out the dividers, and clean the drawer thoroughly, then reinstall everything. So much easier to clean this way!
This is the most useful idea for dividers...thank you from greece .Anna also think that is people from Europe and follow and we will like to see the notes in the imperial measurements if that is easy for you it will be very helpful for us from Europe. THAKS A LOT you are also so beautiful and smart thanks again
I didn't find that they were too bad, but they can be. You can cut a little shy so it sits down a bit, or you can file them. They may have plastic channel too, which would be another option.
Nice! I'm thinking you could have just drilled and then screwed the dividers in place without the aluminum C-channel, but I suppose your way allows for quick divider arrangement changes, especially if you had installed extra C-channel. Looks great!
Anna I am so inspired by you. I am nearly 70 yrs. old and just bought my first power tool. A compound miter saw with a stand. My house is nearly built and I look forward to making little projects around the house. I will be sure and post pictures.
Wonderful, I am so excited for you and can't wait to see your projects Pamela!
I am 65 soon and I made a sofa from Ana's plan.
Cool idea using the channel trim. I guess I need to remove my old cardboard box dividers and put these babies into action. Thanks again.
Boy, talk about an obvious trick, that never crossed my mind. My Wife will be thrilled when I update her kitchen draws. Thanks! 👴🏻🇦🇺
Drawers.
Great idea. I like how it is removable if you want to change the configuration.
Glad you like it!

Wonderful and you can totally do this!
It's like you knew how fed up I am with my drawers! Bless You! And my relatives thought I had gone off the deep end asking for tools for Christmas and my birthday. Wait till I show them my drawers!From Minnesota
Love that!
This is great!!! I have spent too much money on flimsy drawer dividers, now I can have them for truly cheap and sturdy!
Well you did it again! You took a relatively hard project and found an extremely simple and efficient way to do it. Amazing!!
Wow, thank you!
I've been watching you guys for a while, loving yall's work. Finally, for Christmas, I got myself power tools. I am determined to build a small custom bookshelf, and replace a drawer that has broken. Just bought an assortment of screws today, so there is no turning back.
Exciting and empowering!
Miss your videos. Thanks for this. Prayers you and yours are well!
Thank you so much!
I have done some dividers in kitchen and shop cabinet drawers and bedroom dressers using some pocket holes, but I like your idea using the channel so much better. I have turned into an organizational nut and dividers keep things so well organized.
Being organized is a game changer in efficiency!
This is one of those "why i didn't think about this idea"
Thank you for the idea and yes i will be using it in future projects..
I know right, I've been thinking about how to achieve something like this for months...
Great idea. Been wanting to build my own custom dividers and this is a great simple plan to attach the dividers.
Glad it was helpful!
Sweet and simple! Looks great, plus it's a flexible design. Thanks so much, Ana!
Thank you! 😊
What a great idea & looks so simple. Thanks Ana,
Chris from Missouri
Glad you like it Chris!
Great video! Keep up the good work. You’re a great source of inspiration for my woodworking projects.
Thank you very much!
So simple yet so effective. I love this idea.
Glad you like it!
This is the best idea for installing drawer dividers. Thank you Ana
Thanks for watching!
Creative Genius. Love your example of design and intelliegence. Great Couple . Great Family.
I appreciate that!

YES!
It would be neat to see your household organization after you get done with your drawer projects.
Love this idea!
So glad!
Wow! This is amazing! Such a good idea! Thanks for sharing, I will definitely add these around the house
Great!
OMG this is so genius! Thank you so much for sharing this brilliant idea!
Glad you liked it!!

Fantastic! I am happy to help:)
great idea, and way to use the drawer without making another internal frame!
Glad you like it!
You are THE BEST !!!!!( I have learned so much from you - you make everything easy to understand and follow). Can you do a video on an attached pergola? I want to do one in my backyard and I so love everything you do.. it would be awesome if you could do a video on one... Love ya 😁
That sounds like a neat project, I will have to brainstorm that, if it is something we or a family member can use!
She is, she inspire me to make my own sofa with storage.
Love the channel idea… with use for other storage. I made spice drawer by just finish nailing 3 1/2 from outside of drawer frame. Every time I open my drawer it makes me happy to see such organization
Is there anyway for me to share a photo?
Awesome! Please email a photo to anawhitesite@gmail.com if you'd like to share!
Thank you Ana, you are my favorite woodworker
Wow, thank you!
Simple design and easy construction and the final result is visually attractive. Thanks for sharing this video. Stay safe.
Thanks, you too!
I’ve missed your videos, not sure how I got bumped off the wagon. I’ve been wanting to do this diy thanks for sharing
It might be me .... kids in hockey now 😂
@@AnaWhiteDIY well, I’m happy to see you back at it.
Fabulous idea thanks a million for sharing 🌺
You are so welcome!
Great idea and so easy! Thank you, Ana.🙏🏼
Glad you like it!

Brilliant simple solution! Love It!!

Good video. You're great at giving instructions in a way that's easy to understand. Thanks
I appreciate that!
Wow! I love this idea! Thank you 😊

I did this today! Love it! Thanks for the video!
Wonderful!
Brilliant and simple. Great project idea..! Thank you.
You are welcome!
I am not yet at the drawer stage but had not considered using a channel to align the dividers, looks nice. I love my RYOBI's, goodness I think I use them for just about everything.
So simple but so clean!!
Glad you like it!
So simple! I can't wait to do this in my new house. Thank you!
It really is a simple upgrade!
Your sliding miter saw will work perfectly for cutting the aluminum channel. Much mure accurate than the jig saw and faster as well.
I did this and it turned out great! The only thing that I wish I did differently was add a countersink for the screws so that the wood sits flush against the aluminum (I have a decent gap between the aluminum and the wood because I could not get the wood down past the screw heads). Great tutorial though and I plan on doing more drawers!
Nice easy retrofit.
Thank you Anna. Love your stuff and great ideas. I have been wanting to add dividers to my desk drawer but didn't want to spend the money for the individual bamboo dividers. Will be doing this.
Excellent!
Thanks Ana! Another one I will definitely use!
Great!
So cool you are an inspiration! And best part is that you provide the plans for free! Amazing, thank you so much
You're so welcome!
You are such an inspiration.
Thank you:)
Great project! I love the simple but functional videos that a beginner can accomplish. Thanks so much 💕
Thank you and you are welcome!
What a great idea! 😃 I’m totally going to try this!
Sweet!
Hey Anna, you can slide the piece of aluminum on some scrap wood and just drill the holes at once instead of using the clamp. That’s what I did works great and saves a little time.
Thanks for the tip!
Another fantastic idea
Thank you! 😊
Very clever! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
😍 this video. You know you've met a master when they make it look so easy
😊 thank you
That was easy! I need to do that to my junk drawer!
Wow, you just made it so simple. I feel really lacking in thought now.
Thanks for sharing this great idea. Felix

You’re workshop cabinets are nicer than my kitchen 😂
Simple but very effective, thanks Ana for making every explanation so simple. I follow you, keep it up. SL
Thanks so much 😊
Beautiful Work...
This is a great solution!❤❤❤

Thank you for your videos 💜
Thanks for watching!
What a brilliant idea
Glad you like it, thanks for the visit!
Great idea Ana
Thank you! 😊
Ms Ana, if you ever run out of projects to do at your house, I volunteer mine! :-)
You are the best !! Really like your ideas 👏
Glad you like them!
Thanks so much for this, Ana. Just in time.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome idea
Another idea to make my better half smile.
Cool idea Anna. I used woodworking double sided tape instead of screws and it is holding up so far.
Great idea and video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great idea, please do a video for under the kitchen sink and bathroom sink using this method😊
I did this a while back www.ana-white.com/woodworking-projects/under-sink-storage-organizer-h-shelf
This is perfect! Thank you!
You're so welcome!
The nice thing about this design is that you could empty the drawer, take out the dividers, and clean the drawer thoroughly, then reinstall everything. So much easier to clean this way!
Yes!
I like the c channel idea, that way you don't need a baseboard.
Pretty cool idea love it
Thanks!
Very clever. Much easier than cutting rabbits.
i have 3 junk draws I'm going to do the same way you did your. THANK YOU for this tip.
Excellent!
This would be perfect in the top drawer of my dresser to organize all my undergarments and socks
YES!

Anna you rock, thank you 🌸
Thanks for watching!
Nice pretty very nice thanks
Seems so much easier than dado's. Really like this idea. Thank you. You're awesome
You are so welcome!
Great idea ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! 😊
Haven’t read through all comments but it is a great idea!!! One question, are the edges of the channel sharp? Do they need filing? Thank you!
I didn't find that they were too bad, but they can be. You can cut a little shy so it sits down a bit, or you can file them. They may have plastic channel too, which would be another option.
Totally doing this this weekend. Thanks
👍
Can’t wait to see how it turns out!
Great video ! great custom job. How big is your workbench? I like your clamping track !
Hi Ana an Family so enjoy the videos Have a day love from TEXAS
Thanks so much
Nice idea
👍👍👍
Nice project!
Thanks!
That is brilliant!
I thought you would prove too cute to build something competently, but this was actually a pretty clever idea.
Thanks for watching!
gonna buy me some aluminum c channels right now. thank you for this great tip!
Glad to help!
Nice! I'm thinking you could have just drilled and then screwed the dividers in place without the aluminum C-channel, but I suppose your way allows for quick divider arrangement changes, especially if you had installed extra C-channel. Looks great!
