Very nice. I like the embedded magnets. Wish I would have thought of that when making mine last year.

Still on my long "to do" list. Got put off for a much later date after
I built a "Dutch" tool chest, ala the Schwarz. The vast majority of
my treasured hand tools reside in the large version of said chest
which I cobbled together out of mostly leftover wood and hardware.
As for the wall cabinets
I once opined that embedded magnets seemed to be the way to go
and some here did not like the idea at all. For me, it seems to be
a no brainer, particularly for the planes. I love the idea of vertical
storage for the handplanes, but have never cared for the "angled
tilt" shelves as I think you end up with too much wasted space
in the "triangular void" underneath it.
I know which thread you speak of. I snagged pics for a file here on
my computer LONG before I ever joined up and became a contributor
to these threads.
Your cabinet looks very good. Hope I do as well. Some day.

my tool cabinet is a victim of "better is the enemy of good enough" because I'm nowhere near starting to build it. Limping along with a batch of improvised storage that isn't doing a good job of organizing anything.

Thank you all for comments, this forum inspired me a lot for this work.
If someone are thinking is a long job, I can tell them the hardest thing is... start
Ciao e grazie, Leo.
