I Need More Storage or I Need to Thin the Herd

While in the midst of several projects...I found that I have too many old tools that I never use, can't part with, no no place to keep them. I decided to make some make a couple of pine chests that will also serve as small benches.

I based the design on a viking tool chest

And...someone gave to me this plowplane box...unfortunately no plow plane.
I made a lid and it will serve as storage for some other plane. 

I might keep this Stanley Bailey #3 in the box. It was really beat and I picked it up for short dollars. It took a bit of cleaning and tuning. The #3 was made from 1869 to 1984. While it is fairly common and has no value, it is one of the best tools I have used.
