All reclaimed old growth redwood from a woodland barn went into the making of this box. Although the japanese rarely used nails in their joinery work it was very common for them to butt joint and nail a toolbox together. Odd it is!
I based this box off of Toshio Odate's plans in his book Japanese Woodworking Tools, which can be found on my Shelfari bookshelf at the side of the blog.
The top slides open and only from one end. This one is a gift, but the other one that has no top yet is for my Japanese tools that I carry with me. Just nails and wood. Simple and quick....
