This is an old Craftsman tool box from the 1950's that I have just finished restoring. The finish and fittings are original, as are the felt drawer liners and mirror, just cleaned up a little. The back panel was beyond saving, so I put together this Marquetry panel of the Robert E Lee to replace it. These small tool chests make an excellent storage place for lathe chucks and related parts, as well as pen parts or finished pens. A newer model can be purchased from Harbor Freight for around $75 with coupon.
