Hanging Tool Chest
Feb 08, 2010
Running out of tools to put in it...
Made with Asian Lauan and Baltic Birch Plywood. It was my first and last experience with the Lauan; the veneer was only .015″ thick, about the same as three thicknesses of tissue. Just one light pass with a handplane while trimming the case finger joints and I was through to the very loudly contrasting 2nd ply.

Very nice!
2 questions, what are the dimensions? Also, I can't see from the photo; what's in the cubbies above the drawers?
It is 48" tall, 30" wide and about 15" deep. The cubbies are for my planes, I lined the bottoms with outdoor carpet to protect the blades.

Nice piece! Do you have a picture of it closed? Just finished a cabinet for my planes. Doesn't quite come up to your standards. I used felt for lining the bottoms. Was able to pick some up that had adhesive backing at a craft store.
Blackcherry, I made this unit a few years back, you can find the plans in FWW Winter 2006/2007 issue no. 188. Its a great looking storage unit Jcumper...thanks for sharing
This cabinet looks very much like what I want to build. I would love to see more thorough pictures so I could get a better look at it.
I will say one thing, I also have used Luan plywood once but never will again, either. I cringe whenever I see it recommended.
Again, great cabinet.
