THE BEST TOOL BOX DESIGN

Well, at least throw out the sewing box, unless you want to wear a cute little dress too :)

Remember I said I liked elements of the above boxes. We already have a member that did the dress bit.I’m sure he has nicer legs than me LOL

Since I’m mostly carrying measuring tools ,chisels,a carvers mallet etc(no power or battery operated tools) it doesn’t need to be super big maybe 20” long by no more than 12” wide and 6”-16” tall depending on the design

a1Jim – Reading what your needs are, looks like the suitcase design would work….

“Bitness man, takin care o bitness”....lol

-- Measure "at least" twice and cut once

The suitcase sure has a lot of wow factor.

Jim, try a couple of these. They can be modified with smaller sliding containers inside.

well the last time i looked, my legs were looking pretty buff….but i would not know about any kind of dress, what kind of nut would do that…...but i really favor the brief case one, your starting to get some age on ya there Jim…lol…you need something like the brief case…it really is cool…and i think you could design it to hold everything you need….

boxguy, really cool toolbox, the down side is basically everything is always mixed together and smaller items are harder to find under chisels, saws and what not, also dangerous to dig if you keep things sharpish.

-- The mark of a good carpenter is not how few mistakes he makes, but rather how well he fixes them.

I like the brief case one too ,I also like the one I just added.
Those are nice Boxguy but like TCC, I would be concerned about my nicer tool banging togehter.
Grizz I don’t think I mentioned any one’s name with the dress deal ..but I could LOL .asfar as starting to get some age on me ,been there already done that.:))

I like the first one, with some modifications it could be a perfect tool box. In fact I am going to steal the pic so that I can make one for me.. :-)

Kind of interesting isn’t it Jorge .It was designed by a guy named Wowhaus here’s a link to go with the photo.

BTW I agree with TCC, as I made one like this many years ago, back when I had no experience and thought this was a good box. It is not made to carry tools that rely on sharp edges to work.

No No No Grizz I won’t tell,please anything but fleas LOL

I saw that design in my search Jorge but had the same concern even though it was a very cool design.

Jim, sounds like a great project. I kind of like the brown 2 drawer 3rd from the last pic. In fact that may be something that I will look into building for using at craft shows. I need something to carry my pen gear and designed right it just may do the trick.

Look forward to seeing what you come up with.
