Convenient
Box for Nails and Screws |
|
| |
|
|
| |
The handy box illustrated is made up into as many compartments
as desired, all but one being provided with an individual cover
when in use. This makes it possible to expose only the contents
in the compartment in use. Also, the contents of one compartment
can be dumped out without emptying the whole box. |

A
box of this type will prove a special convenience to patternmakers
and other woodworkers. |

The covers are pyramidal in shape, with a depression in the
top for moving them conveniently with the finger. In case it
is desired to carry the box in a tool chest, where it might
be upset, covers are provided for all the compartments; the
extra one is slipped on just before the box is packed, and all
the covers are locked in place by dropping a nail into a hole
drilled through one cover and the end of the box, as in the
side view. |
