granpa Tierck's tool box
« on: November 03, 2017, 11:18:27 AM »
I built the tote as a hobby activity, filled it with old tools for a display.  A depression era working man's tool box as used for decades later.

Enjoy, hope the pics work.
The only bad tool is the one that couldn't finish the job.  Ironicly it may be the best tool for the next job.

If anyone is interested in trying this themselves the build thread is on the Gazette in the collector-vintage- antique section.

   Its really pretty easy and cheap.  It even helps if you are poor at woodwork.
   And most important, thanks guys.  I love these little projects.
