Two more weeks until I join the other members in southern Georgia to construct my new workbench. Progress is being made on my tool chest. I have the chisel rack done and installed and also the tool trays are finished. I have been using the chest as I work to complete it, and I have to say that I really like it so far. I like its size and I have it sitting on 2 24" tall stools. So the height is really nice. I can reach down inside and get what I need without any bending over. I think once I build a base for the chest, I will really enjoy working out of a chest. huh....go figure! haha
Whats left? I want to put a molding around the base and the dust seal. I have received my hinges from Horton Brass and they are awesome. So I need to install those. I need to decide what to do with the handles and install them as well. I plan on just wiping on a couple coats of oil and then a couple coats of wax and leave it alone. I don't want any film finish that I have to repair later.
