Jumping on the dutch tool chest bandwagon

Today, I have started a quick project: a small dutch tool chest loosely based on the Popular Woodworking plans. Instead of sticking to the published dimensions, I adapted it based on the Woodwright Shop episode. The top compartment has been made to fit my German wooden planes and the bottom compartment will host my dutch hollow, round and molding planes.

So far I have milled the sides, the bottom, the shelf and dovetailled the carcasse together. Next time I get in the workshop, I will cut the dadoes, fit the shelf and hang the handles. Then it will be down to the "easy" part of the project.

If I get enough free time in the next months, I may actually build the large one as well.
