I used to have my own tool and die making shop. Took the drill home when I sold the shop. It is quite stout.

I agree. The corners looks great.

It is a swedish word for handicrafts. Derrived from an old word for "clever". In woodworking it usually means working with green wood and making everyday items like spoons, spreaders and shrink pots. Often utilising the different properties of wood like bends, shrinkage, etc. I have seen it spelled slojd in English.

Thanks. Me too!

Thanks. They are fixed for now. The plan is to put it all in tool chests. A small one thats easy to carry for slöjd stuff, the one I'm building now for carpentry stuff (movable by sack truck), and a large proper "Anarchist's Tool chest" on wheels for furniture tools.

I am a lurker at heart, but I thought I should help get things going. This is a chest for my timber framing/carpentry tools. Inspired by the plans in the anarchists tool chest. Ripping was done in the bandsaw, otherwise its hand tools only.
