Tool box gone bad....




       How many times has it happened to you ?
You set out to do one thing and it turns into 
something completely different. I can remember 
starting to fry up some burgers a while back and they 
started to fall apart.  Next thing you know I was adding
spices and beans and making chili !  Sometimes you
just don't know what curves life is going to throw you .
   Enter my latest project.  I decided I needed a storage
box for drill bits and  assorted small tools for on the 
workbench.  I thought I'd design something with a
curved bottom of sorts so I could simply rotate it
towards me and pick out a tool without having to pick
the box up every time. I had a few pieces of scrap wood
laying around so I started cutting ,sanding and gluing
parts together.  Well I mistakenly cut one end too high
so I tried to blend it in but it just didn't suit my needs.
The almost finished project sat on my bench for a couple 
days until I remembered my Grand daughters dismay on 
Christmas day because her baby doll didn't have a cradle.
Maybe she could stuff her baby in this drill bit box ?  
After all it rocks like a cradle.. and with a bit of paint.....
So that's my story and I'm sticking to it  !  I don't want to 
hear any rumors going around that Pappy is getting soft...
It was just an accident .. that's all !!!!
