After having my tools stuffed in every drawer, cranny or sitting on a shelf for years I felt it was high time to build them a home. The cabinet is Cherry with a shellac over BLO finish. Design is my own with a few borrowed ideas from the FWW archives. Still somewhat of work in progress as the task of mounting the tools is endless. Thanks for taking a look.

Man, that is stunning! Great job. What kind of shellac did you use? Amber, Garnet, etc. I haven't used shellac before and was wondering how much it would color the cherry.

I hope to make something that nice one day for my tools.

Very, very nice. I love all the details that went into it:

Dovetails

Turned knobs

Cherry

All the drawers and the raised panel doors!

Very inspiring!

Stephen, that looks too nice to go in the garage. Awesome job. No wasted space, everything has its own bin or cubby.

Absolutely gorgeous. I really like the purpleheart pulls and plane tills. It must be wonderful to be able to put up all your tools :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

That looks awesome! I have somehing like tht on my to-do list. I REALLY like the door handles. Any chance of a close-up shot of them? Also what sort of catch did you use to keep the doors closed. Iagree with the others that the finish is spot on!

That would be at the top of my "to do list" if I had the vertical space and any decent hand tools!! :dontknow::dontknow:

Awesome! Can't add anymore comments that haven't already been said.:eusa_clap

Can you give us a rough dimension? How did you hang it on the wall, with all the tools is probably fairly heavy.:eusa_thin

I'm very interested in any hints on how you did the front face handles...:icon_scra
