Custom Boxes for High End Starrett Tools

Custom Boxes

for High End Starrett Tools

It is an amazing feeling when you are asked to fulfill a customer's vision, and you succeed!

I was asked to build custom tool holder boxes for precision Starrett tools for a machinist in Fort Wayne.  I was honestly intimidated by the whole idea because I felt like my work wouldn't be up to the level the customer expected, as well as the fear that my work wasn't worth what I was asking to be paid.

My fears were unfounded as I plowed through the project, including having to re-cut the sides of the largest box because of a mistake in the first few steps.  I was able to build three beautiful boxes (with their own errors and mistakes) using new techniques, hardware, and tools which turned out good enough that the customer asked for two more boxes at delivery!
