[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 31673, member: 34"] Re: Custom DIY Workboxes The old workbox was about 600 pounds loaded, and each drawer easily had over 50 pounds of stuff in it, and the drawers were just wood dragging on aluminum angle...no slides at all. So I'm prepared for it to be heavy; that's not a big deal. I'm thinking that the cover could be 4 to 5 inches deep, but the drawers could extend into the cover, making them a bit deeper. The other thought is a slam-latch lid...not 100% sure how to implement that one though. I really like the 'table inside the cover' idea, with a hinged cover that could also come off. Workboxes contain lots of small, precious items and security is a really good thing. [/QUOTE]
