Hi Everyone, For this scrap wood challenge I decided to make a wooden Garden Toolbox. Like every woodworker there are always cut off‘s from projects too nice to throw away but often difficult to use in a big shop project. This wood Tool Box was a great way to put some of that material to use and make something practical that my wife really needs… A garden toolbox. What I really like about this project is years from now I know my daughter will also use it, whether working in the garden or maybe a decoration in her Home that will remind her of the old man : ) . I hope you enjoy this video and if you make this Tool box please share it on Instagram and tag me I’d love to see it. Thanks for watching and be good Jon
One of the reasons I like to watch Jon's video's is his design choices. We know he's an artist so he speaks with just a little (a lot of) experience. Cool entry for the scrap wood challenge.
Great project - a couple of laths across the bottom would just keep it up off the ground and could be replaced as they become damaged. Especially useful if it got left out
Nice job Jon. I've made these as planters and put drainage holes in the bottom, but for tools I would've opted out of drilling the holes. I would lose small parts constantly that way. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Jon. I love your art and woodworking projects. I wish I could give, but I am currently out of work. I hope you and family are safe and stay well. Thanks for the great videos. Again, I love your work and willingness to teach others your skill.
Very nice project John. I was thinking your initials and the year would be a nice touch for future family conversations. Love your channel(s) - have been learning from you for years.
As always, great job, Jon! Question: using the router to remove the excess handle material seemed reasonable, but do felt that it saved you any time or effort using it for the dowel plugs? I know typically people will use Japanese pull saws to remove the excess followed by a quick sanding. Of course, there's always more than one way you can approach a task, but I'm curious whether you found any benefits to your approach that would be food for thought. Thank you.
Hey Guys, For me trimming plugs with a router is much faster then with a saw and I’m less likely to scratch the project. I’ll probably keep this base plate on this router. The old corded router stopped working.
Jon Peters - thanks Jon. I’ve never been able to trim a plug close to the case without scratching the work, and I have several flush trim saws and pull saws. The router trick works great.
Cool build as always Bud. Reminds me a bit of the tool carries you made for the ATV a while back. But, I want you to know this does NOT count as one of the 11 furniture projects you promised me this year!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Beautiful job John! One of these has been on my to-do for a long while now, along with the flush trimming baseplate for my trim router. Speaking of trim routers, since you got the milwaukee M18 router, which do you prefer between it and the ridgid?
I still get "Access Denied" (powered by imperva) both on my laptop with home wifi and my phone with mobile internet. I wanted to visit the site from Australia, probably this is the difference why Imperva blocks the access from here and doesn't block it for you. Maybe it gets fixed once. :)

Very handy tool tote Jon, I can see why your wife would like it. Thanks for sharing with us and sharing your techniques. Fred.
Fun details and touches on this project. Nice work.
Very nice
Nice Jon. Not everything is fancy pantsy. Most things like that last forever if build the right way. I like it.
Great project - a couple of laths across the bottom would just keep it up off the ground and could be replaced as they become damaged. Especially useful if it got left out
sweet! love it. i built one for each of my grand children a few years ago.
really nice. Tools are to use.
Beautiful work
I don't know what you're saying most of the time, but this was very very interesting to watch, thanks 😃👍
Beautiful tool box. You have much better scraps than I do!
😂 thanks Stephen 👍
This is a great project. I also really like the way you use the trim router to clean up the plugs. Great idea.
Looks great Jon!
Made one for my mom last week for Mother's Day.
Excellent build and video, Jon. Thanks.

Thanks JP!
Your very welcome Jon! Have a awesome week!😎

This one Free ... but either way thanks!
I built some tool totes for my kids years ago. They still use them!
Nice work. Waterlox for the win. I’ve used it on all my projects for the last year since seeing it here. It’s a great product.
Super cool
Great project 👍
Wooden tool box, like it 😊
Very nice project John The contrasting walnut dowels really kick this utilitarian project up a notch or two
Harleymike/chicago
Very good

Nicely done Jon! I made one of those a while back & they sure come in handy........ 👍👍😉😉
No As always very nice thank you
ver good job
Hi, I made years ago similar project. But, honestly spoken. I misuse it. It's perfect for transport of beer bottles to the BBQ.
Cheers, Thomas

My GUESS is only because it was already set up for the handle, if not I don't think he would attach the base and set it up just for the plugs.
M M , He did not answer one question.

Hi Jon, your tool list link doesn't work.
Thanks for The heads up I just checked it and it worked for me.
