SOLD. Dutch Tool Chest…Needs a Little Love

withKitty

Update: Sold. (I’ll let y’all know when I clean out my own basement…).

Listen beautiful relax classics on our Youtube channel.

I’m clearing some stuff out of the Lost Art Shop cellar to make more storage room for Chris and his family (it’s their house, after all), and came across this poor, abandoned almost-done sugar pine Dutch tool chest from a class I taught two years (possibly more) ago. The bottom is dovetailed; the backboards are three wide tongue-and-groove pine boards (and as you can see, it features Rivierre forged nails). The battens and fall-front catch are red oak; the tool rack and “lock” are walnut.

It has sustained a modicum of water damage – but nothing that can’t be cleaned up with a little planing – and it needs a lid (I gave the lid for this one away to a student).

Given the fixes it needs – and the need for it to be gone – I’d be happy to take $100 (as-is) in exchange, just to cover the materials – the catch is, you must be able to pick it up at Lost Art Press in Covington, Ky., by August 9.

If you’re interested, please send me an email; my signature below is linked.

That’s detritus from the floor joists that were above it (not mold) in the top compartment.
