Making a Box-Jointed Tool Tray

On the Woodsmith Shop, we built this classic toolbox. It features traditional details and finger-joint construction. Here, Phil shows some of the ways to expand its storage by adding a sliding tray to help wrangle small tools.

Do you have a link to where you made the tool box?

[@eugeneyeremin1641]

Nice job as always, great workmanship! One suggestion - wouldn't it be a lot less work and less chance to damage the wood with a chisel if you just sand off a small radius on the bottom piece to meet the routed side corners instead? I would also go with a classic full length tray, which gives you more room to store tools and have a better view of all the things in the box when you pull the tray out and lay it next to the toolbox? Just my subjective opinion, as I am not really fond of sliding doors etc. Don't find them practicable, convenient or comfortable to use in 90 per cent of the time. All the best!

Man, that glue sure took a lot of time to dry 😂

[@WoodsmithShowandmagazine]

Yeah, I had enough time to get a haircut, shower, change clothes... :)

[@eizzle78]

I have glue that’s been drying on a couple projects for months...
