The plan for this mini highboy came from a class I took at Jeff Headley's & Steve Hamilton's  Woodworking Workshops of the Shenandoah Valley (wwotsv.com). The piece is based on an actual mini highboy that resides about five miles from his shop in Winchester, VA. The mini hardware was purchased thru Ball & Ball Hardware of Exton, PA. The most interesting challenge in construction came from the addition of three hidden/secret drawers, which were not part of the class project, and the knee blocks, because of their very small size.
