A few more progress shots.
Ring handles have been added along a shoulder strap. This one is temporary. A nice leather one has been ordered.
The inside lid is now complete. In addition to the shopmade dovetail and crosscut joinery saws, and the customised Knew Concept fret saw, there is a Nakaya mini dozuki (150mm plate, 0.20mm thick). I added a custom handle in Sheoak. This is a superb saw for very fine cuts, such as dovetailed mitres.
The dozuki is supported by a swivel clasp and held with a rare earth magnet at the toe ...
There are two steel rules: a 150mm/6" and a 300mm/12" from a Starrett combination square. The head for the square is in one of the boxes in the top layer.
In the right corner of the lid are two dovetail templates, 1:6 and 1:7. These are the ratios I prefer to use.
And, lastly, the top row of boxes, with shopmade chisels, angle squares, and shopmade marking tools ...
