    I'm in love. It would fit right in holding crafts and such. An addition any workshop needs.

    At 16:24. It used to be common to use heavy string around boxes, wooden & cardboard. The carry easy devise was a handle to attach to string to make a handle. As a collector of canning jars, the nails in the jars caused my heart to jump everytime you rattled the nails. Sharp, metal objects & antique jars aren't a good combination. It can end in the same result as a possum running along the shelf. The glass turning purple has maganese in the glass. Just for fun you might shine a UV flashlight on your old jars & see if any of them have uranium in the glass. If you do, the room needs to be darkened to see colors.

    Those clamp like objects with the pointed ends are trammel points. They’re used for layout of curves and arcs.

    There is something appealing about banks of draws apart from their usefulness. Will look superb cleaned and polished.

      I have a soft spot for them especially the Oak Ones but so hard to find nowadays.

    The clamp with the spike numbers is to tattoo stock animals ears - cattle from the size of it.
    Will you be selling the cabinet when it’s finished? If so, I’d like to raise my hand to be first on the list! Not sure how far I’d have to drive from Canberra to pick it up though.

      The 2 pointy things with the heart shaped holes you called markers might be the 2 points for a beam compass. You slide a wooden slat or rod through the holes.

    Of note, vintage full bottles of Channel No 5 in the original box are very collectible and pricey.
