2 tool chests loaded in my Wrangler.
Whew! I finished my Dutch tool chest just in time for my Hand Plane II class tomorrow night. I’m behind on the blog posts of the building process, but I will catch-up soon. Suffice for now to know that I am really liking the chest as a practical addition to my shop.
In my last post I hinted about the giveaway tool of the night. My final hint – there are two tool chests loaded in my Wrangler right now. If at least 6 people show up for class only one of them should be coming home with me. No, I’m not giving away the new one.
