To you woodworking magazine hoarders out there
I accidentally tossed out a woodworking magazine I'd long been saving, that
contained an article about a hanging tool cabinet that I have been intending to build to mount over my workbench. I'm appealing to you guys to see if I can describe it well enough for you to remember it and perhaps locate the issue in your archives. The cabinet was made from a dark wood, perhaps mahogany, with double doors about two inches deep, with the usual sort of storage within the opened doors for racks of chisels, marking tools, and so forth. Inside in the bottom half of the main cabinet were the following two features: (1) a row of narrow cubbyholes all the way across the cabinet for storage of small and medium-sized hand planes with their heels toward you, separated by 1/4" vertical separators made of what I think was curly maple, and (2) an internal cabinet of small drawers, maybe a foot high. These two, the hand plane storage and the small drawers, take up approximately half of the vertical space in the cabinet, leaving the upper area open and undivided. The critical design point that you might remember is that in the back of the upper area, three long planes, maybe Stanley #5, #6 and #7, or maybe #6, #7 and #8 were displayed, one above the other, lying on their sides with their soles facing toward the back of the cabinet, with each of the three planes lying on a narrow shelf shaped like the profile of the plane. On the right side wall, if I remember correctly, hung a couple of router planes, such as a Stanley #71. I believe that the tool cabinet appeared on the cover of the magazine, and that it was published perhaps, but not certainly, between say 2011 and 2014, certainly no later than early 2014. I've been looking on the web, and so far I've checked the online archives for a number of woodworking magazines. I've checked the covers for an image of the cabinet and read through the magazine indexes without finding it. Here are the archives I've searched so far: . Fine Woodworking . Woodworker's Journal . Popular Woodworking . American Woodworker (what's available on the web since it merged with Popular Woodworking, anyway) I'm hoping that this description will ring a bell, and that perhaps one of you might be able to find the issue or even just suggest the names of other woodworking magazines I might look for. I'm not asking for the issue itself, but if I can find the name of the magazine and the issue date or number I can find a way to buy a back issue of it from the publisher. Thanks for any help you can give me on this quest, Tom |

These are close, but not the exact one I'm looking for. Nevertheless they offer some good images of what I'm after. If I don't find the original, or even if I do, I'll undoubtedly be making changes to the original 'inspiration' when I build my own tool cabinet, so I'll study these as well for whatever I can learn from them. Best regards, Tom |

I found an image of the cabinet!
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=...8o0&ajaxhist=0 Sonny gave me a great suggestion to use Bing's image search, and after scrolling through a lot of pictures I happened upon an excellent image of the cabinet. I then used tineye.com to do a reverse image lookup, hoping that I would find a useful URL in any hits that tineye found. Unfortunately, no luck so far on that, but I'm going to keep on keepin' on. Thanks, Tom |

Still looking for plans, but a good detailed picture like that one is probably all I need to get the effect I'm going to be after for my much-simpler project. Best regards, Tom |
