Hang up the other tools on brass hooks.
After completing the cabinet, paint it inside and out, and fasten either a hook or lock to the door.
When this cabinet becomes too small for your increase in tools, you can keep those you use the most in it, and make
Another Cabinet for the special and less used tools. Either screw the cabinets to the wall or support them upon brackets.
Racks may be made for any tools you wish to hang on the wall. A piece of grooved siding nailed above the bench will do nicely for the large square.
When you do outside work you will want something in which to carry such tools as will be required to complete the job.
Fig. 17.—A Carpenter's Carrying-box.
A Carpenter's Carrying-box should be made. Such a box is shown in [Fig. 17]. The box should be about twenty-seven inches long to accommodate the saws, and it would be well to make the width eight inches and the height sixteen inches. First prepare the end-pieces, making them six by sixteen inches and rounding the tops with the compass-saw, as shown in the illustration. Then cut a board twenty-five inches long by six inches wide for the bottom and nail the end-pieces to the ends of it. Make the side-pieces twenty-seven by eight inches, and nail them to the end-pieces and to the edges of the bottom board. The handle consists of a broom-stick fitted into holes bored near the tops of the end-pieces.
