Making Jimmy’s Tool Box

I have been challenged by Jimmy DiResta, for our Maker Mob maker challenge, to make Jimmy's bandsaw toolbox with my own take on it. Watching Jimmy make his bandsaw toolbox, I thought, wow! he's making a CNC project on the bandsaw. So my first thought was to make the joinery and the parts for his toolbox with the CNC. I drew up a set of drawings that I could cut out on the CNC and I cut out all the parts and amazingly they went together. I guess I was following a good design. At the bottom of the toolbox, there is a drawer that can slide out of each side of the toolbox. I thought it would be neat if that drawer was on a rack and pinion system so you could turn a knob on the side of the toolbox and have the drawer open to either side of the toolbox depending on the direction you turn the knob. I made the toolbox out of the salvaged pine I got from an auction a few weeks ago and I made the gears and the drawer at the bottom of the toolbox out of some cherry I got from a neighbor a few years ago. The toolbox will be my new glue tote and I will fill it with all of the things that I need when I glue a project together. This will be really nice to have all of these items in one place
