My grandfathers tool chest – right side test fit

So the test fit is a big load off. Everything seems to fit exactly as expected. Not looking forward to making all the little dividers and boxes for the left side of the tool chest.

Contents of the box as things stand now only have 22 things. I decided to not pack so much into the toolbox. It contains fewer tools but I can carry it farther. Right now the box contains:

1. Folding wood ruler

2. Zippo lighter

3. Razor knife

4. Back saw – crosscut

5. 12oz hammer

6. Impact hammer

7. Small lineman’s dike

8. Wire cutters

9. Needle nose pliers

10. Locking pliers

11. Two 1 inch chisels

12. 1/4 inch chisel

13. 6 inch pry bar

14. Try square

15. Speed square

16. Adjustable square

17. Coping saw

18. Hack saw

19. Panel saw – rip

20. Panel saw – crosscut

21. Metal tape measurer

22. Wrecking bar

There are a whole pile of other tools I still need to make holders for – but that is what is in the box so far. Now that I have the tool wells glued up I can check clearance and make the mounts for the lid mounted level.
