Toolbox finished!

Finished in the white ready for hand in - base board, wheels and a lock to go on.
 I am pleased with the result - there are a couple of mistakes such as where i have slipped with the router and a couple of small gaps here and there. But nothing too noticeable or to worry about. 
I have learnt a lot about how to use the machines correctly, safely and efficiently; if i were to make it again i would of made sure i machined all the parts for each section to get a better fit - i cut the jointing grooves in the main body with a router at separate times making some of them slightly different making it more difficult and time consuming when it came to gluing up.  
More pictures to come when it has wheels, a lock it is  stained or painted (haven't decided yet) and most importantly - FULL OFF TOOLS!!
