Am I the only woodworker who doesn't like... tool boxes that have a lid that hinges upward. In small shop, these kinds of tool boxes annoy the heck out of me. I need to store vertically and these boxes terminate the stacks too low. I need tool cabinets with only drawers and doors.
In the end, all of my tool boxes with hinged lids end up being way more of a pain in the ass space waster than useful storage. And I have plans to make drawered tool cabinets to replace some of my lidded units. Have I mentioned that I HATE hinge lidded tool boxes?
Or perhaps you can convince me that lidded tool boxes are awesome.
Sorry you hate lidded tool boxes. I LOVE mine!! Of course the top is so high that I couldn't put anything on top of it anyway. Built this one last month, and still half the drawers are empty. It has tons of room. Just give it time…
