I have worked with a couple of old spreads who have made there own wooden tool boxes was wondering if anyone else has made one and any one got any pics cheers ian
Beddy on here does a range of them just PM him for his catalogue.
when i was an apprentice 1963, harry ,the firms leading plasterer made us 3 apprentices a wooden tool box each. at the end of each day he would check that you had cleaned, and put your tools in the correct position. the tool box was also your seat in the back of the van. we also had a wooden hopup each, made for your height, in flat pack so that it did not take up to much room in the van.
Ive got an old toolbox at my mums house that my late dad made. Like a tote bag. Nothing special but then ive also got these 2 wooden briefcase type boxes he made to hold.all his gear. Planes saws etc. Everything has a place and a way of holding it in place. They really are a work of art and mad to think it was just a way of getting his kit to and from work
Sounds like your old man was a skilled carpenter with pride, how come you ended up a scabby skimmer?
Made a box myself last year. Was great only problem I made it big enough for every tool and it's just so heavy!
