This is an antique carpenters tool chest with four pull out shelves and dove-tailed corners. We acquired it from a woodworker who had bought it for the tools and had no use for the tool chest.
Before:
We wanted to reveal the woodgrain, so we stripped off the old paint and applied a light stain. Then we finished with a coat of Danish oil on the inside and a clear satin spar urethane by Helmsman on the outside.
After:
The tool chest now sits in our living room as an end table.
