Tool Tote WIP - Very Long and loads of pics. Update finished

[Benchwayze]

Hi syntec,

That is lovely work. I had a yen to build a tote from that particular design, but I decided to modify the old 'drop-lid' joiners site-chest, instead. My son 'stole' it!

Just a matter of personal taste though, in that I think the curved handles are at odds with the 'angular' features of overall design. But I would think it's comfy to hold. So again, it's a personal thing!

Don't worry Blister...

One day your wish will be granted, and you might feel you should have been careful what you wished for!

And I can't draw straight lines, so I make do with
'wriggly' ones, and turn them into design noodling!

I am at the 'long' end of my woodworking career, if you like to call it that. It wasn't so much a journey, as an adventure... So if you are at the other end I wish you all the best. There's a lot of fun and tears in store... \/

As promised, I managed to get both Totes completed.

Not managed to fill the 'woodwork' tote with any Posh tools yet. But the 'Installation' kit is full of stuff I already had.

Thanks for looking

Lee, that really is cool.

Any idea how much it weighs, sans tools?

Andy- No idea, but I'll put them on the kitchen scales when SWMBO has gone to bed....

I'm not doing it now, she'll think I've gone (even more)nuts

Great stuff. You've certainly got style and the tote's definitely a statement. Great write up and photos too. Going to have to get me a copy of that book - I need a decent cabinet to hide away my tools!

Cheers, Ted
