Thank you, where the handle goes into the box, was that pressed into the box? (like a louvre)

About the 6th shot down has another angle.
You are going to make the uber unobtainium toolbox not so impossible to have! :clap:

Well some fine tuning is in order, but here is the rough stages of the stamp for the top and bottom of the tool box. The nissan symbol is going to take some time to carve. This is just a scrap piece of metal i used. :shock: :shifty: :shock: :roll: :shock: :o

Ron,
So out of curiosity, do you actually make a nissan emblem and then press or emboss it into the sheet metal?
It is so cool to see you doing this stuff, I wish I were a fly on the wall. :D
