Secret Drawer Compartment

I show how to make a secret compartment in a drawer. This can be useful but is also simply awesome to have. It is pretty easy to make and at first glance will be undetectable. A secret compartment in a drawer is only obvious to the owner of the drawer and doesn't require a key or combination. It loses its secrecy only if it's easy to spot, so a good secret compartment is modestly sized and well-camouflaged. Build a false bottom to match the rest of the drawers in a set and keep it shallow, no more than an inch or two.

A false bottom is an internal partition in a container, typically at the bottom of a drawer, suitcase or similar item, enabling the concealment of objects from a cursory examination of the item's contents. A false bottom may be present if the internal dimensions of a container do not match its external dimensions after taking into account the thicknesses of constituent materials and structures used to build the object. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_bottom
