Re: What hand tools can't you live without?
Nice job, but if all of us add our favourite "must have" hand tool, you will need a truck to move it. When I have to work away from my shop, I try to figure out just what I will need for the job and carry only the minimal kit necessary. Your design seems to me to be more than flexible enough to allow you to do this. I would only suggest a few thin drawer dividers so that tools don't knock against each other in transit.

Don't leave steel tools in an oak box for any length of time, particularly in a humid environment, as the tannins in the oak will corrode your finely polished chisels / planes in next to no time. My preference would be teak or mahogany type timbers.
