August 18, 201411 yr Ok, a start on filling this thing up. First off, needed a way to hold the lid open. Trimmed a piece to length for along the back edge of the lid To keep the lid from going too far back. Glue and screws to install Sorry about the fuzzy photo. Seemed to work. Ok, lid will stay open, so I can get a little work done on the inside. Set up a corral for the four braces, and a drill bit holder A 1x1 screwed to the floor. A 1x upright to keep them upright. A diagonal brace to keep the divider upright. Whew. Had to keep working on the top of the divider to get it below where the trays will slide across. Yeah, a few handplanes showed up, wanting a place to hide. As for the bits for these braces And an eggbeater drill, too. I already had the 2x4 block made up. Was going to make a drawer like thingy for it. Screwed to the side of the chest. One last look at the crowded floor There is even a pair of rails installed for the next tray to slide on. Then, the battery on the Makita died. Bummer. Oh well, BREAK TIME! Need to plan a few trays anyway.
