Project Information

Simple project for some scrap ply lying around. One is for quick transport of blacksmithing hammers, brushes and tongs, etc. One is a gift for another blacksmith who graciously gave me a brace and bit, an anvil hardy and possibly my grandfathers old workbench. Needless to say, I'm grateful!
Two of the boxes are a later model. They just fit a one gallon plastic coffee can if you push a little. Handy for switching out contents in the tote.
Oh yea, can't see it in the photos. Everything is rabbet jointed and dadoed. No nails or screws except for divider panels. The screws used for the dividers or hinges were really there just to let the glue dry.
Thanks for looking.

Have been wanting to do one of these for a while to take my chain saw praphernalia wirh me, to cut branches etc. Great post, and a design I can live with, if you don't mind me copying it.

This is a great first project for kids too. It's certainly easier and cheaper to buy a plastic one but nothing beats the wood! Thanks for sharing.

Basic and clever. Each time I looked at the pictures I saw another feature like the pen holder and little hinged box for small pieces.

Derek, Yes I now beekeep too. We just started two hives as complete rookies. We've received some really good advice from some oldtimers and giving it a try. So far so good. Short version of the story. I met the guy who gave me the last push over the edge to start into bees while picking up a door for a basement remodel. So it's kind of a woodworking story too. Later
