I noticed a thread where a couple of guys said they needed to build a tool cabinet for their hand tools.
Coincidentally I had been looking in some past magazines for a idea on one for myself. I don't have a lot of old tools, but the ones I do have were given to me by my father and a couple of those were his fathers, hand planes, squares, marking guages, a few chisels, a cabinet scraper, spokeshave, etc....so it has crossed my mind I should build something for these tools other than in the bottom of a drawer in my shop.
Fine woodworking magazine (#188) has a nice article on a wonderful tool cabinet....probably way more than I would ever need, but like I said I'm looking for ideas.
Anyone want to share pictures of theirs and maybe some likes/dislikes of their design?
Thanks.
