Besides unsightly aesthetics, and the potential of banging metal against metal, is there any disadvantage or danger with using a metal storage box (like these) as a tool chest? Specifically, am I going to increase my chances of corrosion or rust?
With a two year old, and a recent move to a location that attracts out of town family visits, my shop time is very limited these days. Unfortunately, some of my planes have developed a bit of rust from sitting in the open shop. While I would love to build a nice tool chest, as many recently have, I have too many other projects in front of it that compete for my time.
To speed up a tool chest solution, I was thinking of lining a craigslist find with plywood and building some trays and compartments.
Thanks in advance for any advise and/or thoughts,
Jeff
