My tool chest is made of blue stained sugar pine. The booked-matched top with Greene and Greene breadboard ends is key locked. A removable front panel has a tongue on its bottom which fits into a groove in the carcase and is held in the shut position by bullet catches. It can also be locked by a built in sliding barrel bolt located beneath the key hole. Six removable dovetailed drawers have flush handles with a carved out relief on the fronts. The chest ends are book matched frame and panel construction. Bracket feet support the tool chest.
