I built this chest to hold my collection of Veritas planes and accessories. Planes are stowed on shelves or hung by the tote or knob by leather laces and thongs. Nothing fancy---plugged pocket screws and dimensioned red oak and poplar thru-out. 16 1/2 x 25 1/2 (almost divine proportion).

Catfish pizza maybe---but mighty tasty

Keep up the good work. I just started a set of old Stanley planes for my shop, but need a cabinet or case for them, too. You give me some good ideas. Thanks for sharing.
