Machinist's Chest

This turn-of-the-century tool chest made from riftsawn oak is as useful for storing tools today as it was 100 years ago.

From the basic measuring and marking implements to your favorite hand tools, this chest will keep everything in its place. You can also see why the design is a classic. The case features finger-joint construction and a frame and panel back and front. These elements, combined with the vintage hardware, lend authenticity to the antique appearance.
