Brief Description:  Making the tool box kit

After the control surface kit, this toolbox was a snap. But, the plans were less specific and there was a couple of places that could snag you if you weren't reading the plans well. You need to unhinge the hinge and reverse one side and put back together. You need to do that before you measure and cut the hinge. Otherwise, because of the spacing of the hinge eyes, you will end up short on one side and long on the other in the event you cut it before reversing one side. Sounds confusing, but its not. Bending the handle wire went a LOT easier if you torched it in the vise to soften it up. It bends easier that way. Also, if you want the bend to be the right length after you are finished, you learn to mark the bend point about 1/4 inch shorter than the actual length called for. So, if you need to bend the wire to make a 3/4 inch long piece, mark the wire at 1/2 inch and have that mark at the outside edge of the vise because the actual bend takes up about another 1/4 inch by the time you get done bending it. Get the picture?
