This stuff was lying on top of an old handmade mechanics toolbox of mine. Looked like it was laid out for a picture so .....I took one! There’s a round 1882 Perfection lock a nice Sargent lock with a Fleur-de-lis type pattern and a Slaymaker RFD mail lock.
This is the box as I received it, badly beaten up and not showing a lot of love. The case was way out of square and somebody had put in about 50 nails and screws holding the thing together over time.
Scaled down tool tote from the Handyman Club www.handymanclub.com/projects/articletype/articleview/art.... This is a 12" long box instead of an 18" box, because my wife wanted something smaller and we are going to give the full sized one to my in-laws.
I recently found an old wooden toolbox and I am trying to date it.
There are square nails in it and the hinges look old too.
I will be restoring it, but let it keep its age, just clean it up and fasten everything.
I love the almost black color.
My initial thought was to restore it and use it for my own tools.
But I might just keep it just as decoration.
Any info is always welcome.
Finally got my toolbox from the good folks of Boston Industrial. ( www.bostonindustrial.com/ ) My tools have a home after a lifetime of waiting... These are made by Excel ( catalog.bostonindustrial.com/item/all-categories/tool-box...? ) and I have to say, they are very well built. I'm happy. www.44bikes.com ( www.44bikes.com )
We don't have a dedicated team room...yet. So our meeting tools are in this toolbox for easy transport!
