Simple circle chord with a tab/slot attachment?

That’s actually a great idea!

I had thought about that after I cut and assembled my build, limited resources on this one but I’ve got some ideas now!

What about cutting one of the tokens in half, then create a rectangular slot on the drawer face where you insert the half token? The half token would act as a pull, and if you have multiple drawers with different tokens (really, who only has one token anyway), this would serve as an identifier as well.

Instant rope handle.

Sketchup is super cool.
As for the 5 mins, that’s a good initial concept. I think there are a couple of issues though: there’s nothing to stop it from pushing the handle in, and I think any kind of torque will mess it up.
A simple step out in the “tongue” might solve both of those problems, so the face of the drawer is trapped between the “step” and the little retaining pin you’ve made. It’s a pretty cool design idea.

I’d have to fire myself if something like this took any longer.
You’re quite right, it’s little details like this that often trip me up and require a second iteration.
Something like this is better and uses less material

It’s funny, I was actually thinking about doing the same type of thing actually!

That is definitely better. Now put a locking feature on the pin and you’ve got it!

It’s called “wood glue”

It’s called gel based super glue and it holds much longer then wood glue in my experience

Sure, but just a small serrated tab would work too.

Cut a bunch of disks, with a hole in the middle that’s the size of a long bolt. Then stack the disks on the bolt and use a nut to attach the bolt to the front of your drawer and VIOLA! you’ve got a knob…
You could even use one of your game chips for the big one at the end.

I love this design by committee! In this case it seems to work.
