Instructions
I've had to make the stacker drawer slightly narrower to keep the Tardis the same shape.
I've also improved the base of the drawers so that they stick to the build platform by more surface area but still stack.
I left the door stop on the original upload, if you downloaded that one, you can always just cut it off (I did!).
I'll turn off work in progress when I've posted the rest of the drawer types.
Update:
The double height draw was too high, I've uploaded a new one.
I'm going to turn off the Work In Progress flag, these drawers work, let me know if you want one of the others and I'll generate it.
I have got a derivative that's nearly ready with a chess board embedded in the bottom of the 6 drawers. I'll post that as a new item rather than adding it here.

About how much does the finished print weigh? I'd like to work out cost and how much filament I need left on a spool. Thanks!

Depends on the scale, nozzle size, layer
height and infill. At full scale (230mm high), using a 0.4mm nozzle, layer height of 0.27 mm and an infill of 10%, resulted in a Tardis weighing
326g and drawers weighing 219g, giving a total of 545g. Which
is about 1lb 3oz in old money ;-)

this is a beautiful Tardis, but I've not been able to get the back to print decently - two tries, both stringy messes because it's trying to bridge such a huge distance. That being said, I'm printing in PLA, not ABS, so bridging is trickier.
Are people printing this using support? Are you printing in ABS or PLA?Perhaps it's worth adding some supports?
I've made all of mine using PLA on a Replicator 2. The cooling fan is pointing directly at the filament output and cools it very quickly. If I turned off the cooling fan, it would not bridge. I expect that support would work well, it only needs to support the first 3mm.
