Lathe Tool Holder Project

[Jim Young]

After getting fed up with my tools laying around I decided to make a cabinet (no doors) to put all the goodies in. Here is what I have after a few days in the shop. Half way through, I now have to make the holders themselves. At first I was going to make drawers for the cubbie holes but now I am not sure, maybe the stuff would be easier to get without having to pull drawers open.

How'd ya turn those triangle pieces in the ends?

Judging by the size of that back panel I'm betting he used one of those outboard turning lathes.

That looks like a nice cabinet! I would probably be inclined to put doors on the lower cubbies. To keep the sawdust out of the small parts that you will put there. Also, I would think that what you put there may have a tendancy to fall out.
