Default What a Gift!
Went over to my Brother in Laws house last night. I wanted to drive the 06 Mustang GT but the wife said lets take the truck. I couldn't figure out why and didn't ask. We got to the house and he showed some of his new graphic art computers and printers etc. than took me to the living room, there on the floor with a red bow on it was a repilca Gerstner wooden tool chest that he just finished making. It is fantastic, every last detail down to the hardware which he ordered from Gerstner is perfect. I can't wait to transfer tools to it tonight! Wow what a gift!

that's such a thoughtful gift! We probably all want a Gerstner, but don't want to pay for one! but to have a hand-built one? That's even better!

I like your carvings and your shop- it looks cozy. What are the dimensions of the building?

My shop is 12x20 a little small but it works. My tables saw and other big tools are across town in my friends business shop. I want to put up a pole shed about 24x30 but we are now looking into renting space and starting a business. I will post some photo's of the tool box tonight on my Picture trail site.

Great looking chest, lots of space for stuff. It will fill up quickly my friend, and you'll be needing another soon! Smile
