FOR YEARS I HAVE BEEN MAKING & RE-PURPOSING MAHOGANY BOXES FOR MY UNBOXED TOOLS .

THE WOOD KEEPS THEM DRYER THAN A METAL OR PLASTIC BOX . IT's NICE WHEN THE MAKER
SUPPLIES A NICE WOOD BOX BUT OFTEN , NO SUCH BOX IS AVAILABLE .

HERE ARE A FEW OF THE ONES I HAVE COME UP WITH . I MADE THE ONE FOR THE MUTLI-ANVIL MIKE
35 YEARS AGO & THE TOOL STILL LOOKS LIKE NEW .

Nice looking boxes. I've worked with a lot of exotics but have to say that mahogany is still one of my favourites. Simple, yet elegant. Individual trays are useful too just to stop stuff from rattling around.

Beautiful! Is that a radius-turning attachment (Hardinge?) in the last pic?
