I planed the 3\/4-inch lumber down to 5\/8&#8243; to decrease the bulk, and I ripped all of the skinnier pieces from the wider lumber. that&#8217;s why the sides are the height they are; rip a 9.25&#8243; 1-by-10 in half and after planing off the saw marks you wind up sides 4.5&#8243; tall. Deeper tool chests, I have found, result in to o much layering of tools. That is, things get buried. The box is about 2-feet long, which makes the whole thing a nice size to fit in car trunks and the like. The cost in lumber and nails is about $40, and I&#8217;m thinking of selling these for $100.
