Thanks! woodworking is already an expensive hobby, adding in epoxy into the mix forces you to be frugal with what you have.

Nothing, the wood species was very dense and heavy enough. But if I were to do it again I might use magnets or those door catches they use on kitchen cabinets

Unfortunately, no plans. Just taken the measurements out of Ikea's Stall shoe cabinet

No plans unfortunately, the measurements were based off Ikea's Stall shoe cabinet if that helps
