Wooden Machinist Tool Chest Plans for sale
Even though the goal of this blog is to connect folks with genuine Gerstner tool chests, I realize that there are several reasons why a craftsman might want to build their own. One uncomfortable fact that must be addressed is that building a tool box the quality of a genuine Gerstner is time consuming and skill-intensive. And if you think you'll be saving yourself a ton by making one yourself, you obviously haven't priced-out the necessary hardware.
But that said, there's something to be said for the pride in accomplishment that you'll feel when you complete the task.
It is in that spirit that we've included links to several plans that we feel will result in a quality tool chest.
Here's one more tool chest plan from Rockler. It features a Gerstner-style detachable front panel. 13'' H x 20-1/4'' W x 9-1/4'' D.
