Japanese Style Mortise Chisel Box

I recently bought a set of six Narex Mortise Chisels from Lee Valley and I wanted a box to store them in. While looking i liked the simplicity of a japanese chisel box (thanks MaFe) so i modified the original to suit me. I figured a box like this would be better than a box made to fit only the six chisels because any other mortise chisels i buy will end up in the box as well. Made totally from wood i had lying around….five different woods to be precise…the top and ends are mahogany, the base is pine, the sides are cypre, the strips across the top are teak and the little divider inside is cedar. basic nailed and glued joints except for the ends which are mortised into the sides (I figured since it was holding mortise chisels it should have mortise and tenon joinery). The box also holds a bottle of oil and a sponge to oil the chisels after use (I hate to see rust on my tools) and a rag to wipe off the oil before use.

-- Measure Twice Cut Once -- It's a lot easier to cut more off than it is to cut MORON.
