Jonathan, very nice!! It is not only functional but very well thought out and extremely well crafted. I especially like the hinges.
The entire piece flows.

Looks awesome. Can you give up some details? What are the dimensions on the sawtill? I'm doing some preliminary in-the-brain planning for a chest, and I'm not 100% sure what to allow for saws. I'm probably going to end up with 5 total and want to figure out what width I'll need.

There is something about the look of clear finished secondary woods inside a painted exterior that I love. Great tool box. I'm starting to realize just how many tools can fit in a small box like this and just how much you can get done with those few tools. Its kinda liberating

Very nice! I really like those hinges. Look great on that box. Does it weigh a ton when filled with tools?
