I am in the process of building a chest for my hand tools. The chest is solid poplar and based on Sir Roy's design.
I know traditionally tools chests are often painted, but my friends are adamant that I should stain it since it is dovetailed and the lid half-lapped.
I respect the opinions of you guys on this type of thing, so I'm asking, "What would you finish this chest with?"
