This is my latest project and very first project posted on Lumberjocks. I always wanted a storage unit like this but never found the time to make one until I saw this unit published in FFW magazine. Its been such a huge help and time saver when its time to pull tools for a outside job or just working in my small garage shop. The amount of storage is truly amazing!!! The area for the hand-planes is my favorite what a cool idea…a small garage for each with a carpet base. Looking forward to posting some already made project thanks Blkcherry.

Nice work. Does your wife control the key to the padlock? Or do you have to lock yourself out so you will go to bed at night? It’s not quite as full as the one in FWW but I can see you’re working on it. LOL Oh, by the way, welcome to Lumber Jocks!!

Wow thanks for all of the views positive comments on this tool chest…which appeared in Fine Woodworking Mag. in Feb. 2007 Issue # 188… a well detail step by step plan is included and all the real credit is due to Jan Zoltowski designer/author of this shop gem. Thanks Jan… also the padlock is for all those borrower who forget to return thing once their done misusing them…you know who you are and we all know you very well. thanks all Blkcherry

LOL, on the padlock. I’ve got a biscuit jointer and a couple pipe clamps I need to get back from one of those “people who know who they are”.

That same project is next up on my list, right after I complete the torsion box assembly table. Nice job!
How many sheets of material did you end up using? I’ve been pricing baltic birch- hoowee that stuff has gotten expensive!

A great looking cabinet. Nice job. In my case I’d have more than enough tools to fill it. But, I don’t know if I could find them all.
