Re: Tool Chest Contest Winner is Selected

Gotta agree with the other posters. The winner's an impresive piece of work but absurd as a tool chest. The editors seem to be in love with baroque pieces; that's fine but I remember my grandfather (a finish carpenter all his life) who taught me to always keep the purpose in mind. He did inlays and fancy moldings - but only on decorative pieces for show. His tool box was a maple box with dividers to separate tools. I wish I had it today.

I really liked Tom Fidgen's chest as a practical woodworking accessory.
