Synopsis: Build the tool chest of your dreams!

Why spend money on prepackaged tool boxes when you can make something better from scratch - a tool box tailored to your specific needs?

In Building the Perfect Tool Chest, master craftsman Jim Stack provides complete materials lists, plans and step-by-step instructions for building 15 stylish, yet practical, designs. Perfect for hand tools and power tools alike, projects range from elegant rolling cabinets to utilitarian tote boxes - a selection that ensures something for every woodworker, no matter what your level of skill.
