Tool Box Just Completed

[Mike Hill]

Just a few pictures of a tool box I built this week to carry some tools to a woodworking class I am attending in Waco, TX in 2 weeks. Red Oak and Walnut (anything I had in the shop), BLO inside and Polyurethane on the outside. 600 grit wet dry and Paraffin oil for the rub out. Still waiting on the hinges, latches and a leather handle to arrive.

I hope you have a clean shop. That is way too nice to put in a dusty one with lots of sawdust! Very, very well done. I love the architectural elements you added to it.

Very cool. I'm looking to build something similar for my Akeda jig and your project gives me some inspirational ideas.

Nice work.

[Mike Hill]

Ralph, I hate to admit it, but this is from an on-line plan. If I had to build it all over, I would make it much lighter. Probably reduce the wood to 1/2" and make the molding an integral part of the box. Like most woodworking plans, it is over kill for the amateur.
