And I thought I went out of my way to make up tooling at
times. Ben......you got us all beat. You must have meet the
devil at the crossroads in order to produce such a
beautiful box. I hate to think how much work you must
have put into that. That's way to nice to put those greasy
old hand tools of mine in. Very, very nice and very, very
custom.

But...that does give me an idea for all the Ash that I'm
gonna have slabbed up.

Thanks , I looked at a lot of tool boxes, I decided to make my own. Total cost was $165 for lumber and $54 for the new radio. Most of the material I had. I used a car radio for sound and it picks up station that most boom boxes do not. the radio is powered by a computer power supply I had in a box of computer parts. the speakers are left and right on top box with three drawers. I made speaker boxes 4x8x18 and the two drawers fit between them and they work real good nice sound. The idea was to make a box that would fit in the small garage, hot take up a lot of room but hold a lot of tools.
Not counting Allen wrenches and small bits I came up with 846 pieces, and all are easy to get at. In the process of getting it all straighten out. Well it works for me. Jbennett
