Yes. I was saddened when my mom gave that toolbox to my uncle after my dad died. My uncle sold the whole kit and kaboodle at an auction yard because he didn't really want it. I would have loved to have had that toolbox, but mom didn't even think of me. She gave me many other things that I couldn't use, but the tool box would have had greater meaning. I never told her how I felt, however.

It was something like this, but much nicer.

My dad had one similar to that one. He used it to transport his carpenter tools. I remember he added a slot on the end for his folding ruler.
