Organization is one of the keys to the successful completion of any home handyman project and that organization includes knowing where your tools are and having them at hand when you are undertaking any project. Tool chests organize tools and make them available when you need them.
Always read the tool chest plans carefully and make sure that there is enough information provided for you to be able to complete the project - before you invest in materials. Some of the plans are excellent, giving a great deal of instruction in text, pictures and drawings while other plans are only drawings and still others are only sketches.
As well, some of these tool chest plans require a woodworking shop that is outfitted with a good selection of stationary power tools such as a table saw, jointer and thickness planer.
These tool chest plans are for the intermediate woodworker to expert woodworker.
