    Gerstner Tool Chests

    I must admit I have always liked the recessed handles on these early ones. Bit of a trick to make however. Just added this picture for reference.

    Gerstner Tool Chests

    Definitely a great project from experience I don’t think you would be happy with the bleach/white look in 10 years of use, going to yellow for sure and look dirty. I would use a dye stain to enhance the grain . Did you get your hardware yet?

    What Can I Do With This?

    It’s a work platform from a Cincinnati tool grinder. Definitely cool piece. I just bought the horizontal mill Grinding attachment from a guy in Ottawa for my old machine.
