Looking through the photographs I took while wandering through antique shops and wanted to share an interesting tool chest that I came across.

Certainly someone can do a decent job of dating the chest. It wasn’t the chest that made me take a second look, but the layout tools that were carefully stored under the lid

Neatly stowed in the lid is a square, 45 degree (best guess), compass, metal triangle (square) and somethiing missing. Certainly the craftsman that used this tool box had a specific task that required these tools. Anyone have a thought?

A couple of other benches were in the store, enjoy the photos.
