Blueprint Cabinet

I picked up some computer card files at a local used office supply for a song. It's one of the best investments I ever made.

They are very strong and great for holding stock, tools and gizmos. I use the top drawer on each for keeping parts used on current projects out of the way and handy.

They are two card wide cabinets and have a low divider down the middle of each drawer. There is about a 4 inch gap under each side that had to be filled. I just used corrugated cardboard and it has sufficed for a couple decades.

I have a stack of blueprint cabinets like the ones on their side above. They are really great. Mine are very strong, stronger or as strong as tool box drawers and on ball bearings. I like having everything spread out in one layer to see all the tools.

For mine I bought some black trays for boots by the door in winter to put some tools in front of some drawers. That way I could lift out the whole tray about 18 X 24 X 1 inch. And still store other tools around and in back of it.

And line them with rubberized drawer liner for tool boxes.

I'm a big fan. No better tool box in my opinion.
