My wooden tool chest i made for my specialty tooling such as collets, drills, chucks and mandrels. The chest was made out of White Oak and some Poplar for the drawer sides.
I wanted to build the chest out of Wormy Chestnut but was unable to find any that was readily available and affordable plus i needed it to store all of my tooling that was lying around thus the decision to proceed with the project and use White Oak.
The upper portion has a hideaway section between the sides of the chest and the drawer sides that readily accept:
6 files
5 mandrels
7 collets
and a Jacob's chuck
all out of the way but readily available...
