Spring, at last! This year's winter was perhaps not the coldest or the most snowy, but it's still just as great when spring arrives.
I have searched the internet for inspiration and found that Marc Spagnuolo aka "The woodwhisperer" made a wall hanging toolcabinet which looked sturdy and easy to make. I will make my own interpretation of his design.
For me it's also about moving my projects and tools to my "Summer" workshop.
As some of you know, i have two different workshops.In the winter I have my shop in a tiny basement here in my building in the city, and in the summer i move my shop into the countryside to our countryplace. In my Summer shop I have much more space and therfore much bigger machines :) .
Move to a different workshop every six months requires a lot of planning. Earlier this year I made some simple tool boxes which will facilitate the move. Now I intend to make a cabinet for my handtools, well maybe not all the handtools but for the most important. The idea is to make a cabinet that can hang on the wall and you easily can lift down to the trunk of a car or a van and drive to the country and easily put up on the wall at the "summer"shop.

I will make it out of 18mm plywood and the dimensions will be 1100 mm*600mm *250mm. It will hang by wall by a "french cleat".
i´ll keep you updated
