I dug out my fathers model making toolbox to begin a model railroad project during the COVID shelter in experience.
My favorite color is red, so I couldn't resist this red metal toolbox. The bottom drawer holds buttons, and vintage games and toys stand in the top shelf.
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.
Here's my faithful upscaled version of the minifig scale toolbox, but here's the twist! Instead of classic hardware, it contains LEGO themed goodies - resembling real world tools - that I believe would be helpful for any MOC creators.

I built the Japanese Toolbox featured in MAKE 34. This was my first woodworking project since high school shop class, and while it's not perfect, I'm happy with how it came out. To make it more uniquely mine, I chiseled my first name on the lid in Japanese.

This Gerstner #33 started out many years ago as a dental equipment box. It's certainly substantial, 12 drawers, nearly 17" tall and hovers around 29 pounds empty. When I got hold of it, covered with the standard black leatherette and trimmed out in rusted metal it was pretty much trashed.
I decided to go whole hide -- or more accurately, I bought half a Gen-You-Whine cow's hide from a local Tandy Leather (yes hippies, Tandy Leather still exists!) and proceeded to cover it. Carefully and with a high degree of trepidation. I mean, at these prices, I was gonna be real careful. You ever bought a raw half a cow hide? You will never question the cost of a leather garment again.
Somewhere along the line I decided to swap around the usual motifs and trim it out with wood. That was another time eater. This particular work of art, or as it was referred to around the house was better known as, "When the hell will this goddam thing gonna ever be done and out of my kitchen?"
Fair enough. But now it's done.
Flickr has become popular for numerous reasons, one of them being that they provide appropriate interfaces to 3rd party developers to create unique web tools and software applications that can access, retrieve, use the photo data and images stored in flickr. This has created an explosion of interesting (and strange) flickr add-ons.
These three sites above are a good place to start exoloration:
* Flickr Services contains not only information for developers wishing to use the "APIs" that make this possible, there is also an extensive gallery of examples of what people have created based on the flickr architecture.
* FlickrBits is another collection of tools.
* The Great Flickr Tool Collection
Some of my favorites include:
* Mappr map photos by geographic location
* Clockr It's Flickr Time Digital clock with digits from flickr images
* Flickr Album create a flip photo album
* Spell with Flickr (see example elsewhere in this presentation)
* FlickrPapr make wallpaper images from smaller images
* Tag Related Browser explore the relationship between images
* delivr create a digital postcard from flickr images
* bickr
* Flickr Backup download your entire flickr collection for backup purposes
* FlickrStorm a different tool for searching
* Delivr send a digital postcard based on flickr images
* Mastercards with Flickr creates a Concentration like game using flickr images
* montager - creates a montage based on many smaller flickr images -- see my dog examples.

This is but one piece of "I Didn't Know You Could Do That with Free Web Tools", a presentation for the 2006 K-12 Online Conference. Other pieces are scattered across the web!
As of writing, I have only performed two public shows with my train MOCs; however, I have I learned a great deal about the safe and efficient transport of Lego the hard way!
Lesson 1: Minimize the number of physical cases to transport by consolidation.
Lesson 2: Pack like-with-like, e.g. baseplates with baseplates, etc.
Lesson 3: Bring everything you think you might never need and more. This is the purpose of the tool case with wheels.
Lesson 4: Pack the trains in their own dedicated robust transport cases. They are precious and deserve the best! :)
Lesson 5: Label *everything*. Include your contact details as well, just in case...
