That's really nice and I like the way you've doubled up.

 

[Graywolf]

That turned out beautiful

 

[Jeremy Scuteri]

Looks great. In picture number 2, what is keeping the chisels from falling? Are there magnets?

Very nice David. It's like a tool wall with doors!
Seriously though, really like the cubbies for all the planes, and having all your squares in one spot. Definitely going to build something similar. Too hard to store hand tools in drawers.

Turned out great David

Good looking cabinet, but I covet all those beautiful tools! Tools that nice deserve a really nice place to live, and you've provided it.

 

[Phil S]

Very nice. I am working on a similar project I hope mine turns out even close to yours

That's really nice, I love the way you doubled it up.

Jeremy: Yes there is a tapered piece of wood that has rare earth magnets at each chisel. I also put magnets under each of the planes to assure they stay in place.
Not sure whether it shows really well but the plywood under the center shoulder plane is on a hinges that allows the use of the area behind the plane rack. Behind the left door is still empty. Haven't decided what tools to put back in that area.
