    Default Wall mounted tool cabinet

    I've finally decided to build a wall mounted tool cabinet for my growing collection of hand tools. They are currently stored in drawers, which inevitably become messy making finding the tool I want a pain.

    Simple ply box with Tassie Blackwood trim, and piano hinges. I've used a French cleat to mount it to the wall. Some rare-earth magnets hold the doors closed. A couple of coats of WOP to seal it up and protect it a bit.

    Now to get onto the various mountings to hold the different tools. A rack for my chisels will likely be the first item.

    Nice! Do you have room for a plane till?

    I made mine out of ply with solid wood trimming also.

    Andy - good to hear from you. Yes, there's room for a plane till, at least for smaller planes. I've only got a couple (so far...) Hope all is going well with the new bub.

    cheers,
