I know this is pretty redneck but I really needed a tool box and I just can't afford one right now and I was cleaning up the yard. I had an old refrigerator, a small one with one single door and it even looked kinda like a big tool box. Well I could have scrapped it for a dollar or two or make it into a tool box and save about $300 bucks. Well I'm cheap, I'm Irish and I'm redneck so it was a tool box build.Besides, I like to re-purpose things rather than send them to the landfill.
First I gutted it, then I put trim around the door to form a drip edge because water would run through the rubber seal when it rained. Then I put a sheet of tin on the bottom which is now the right side to dress it up and make it look nicer. I added a hasp to lock it and then spiffed it up with some white paint.It was really pretty simple. All in all I think it doesn't look half bad.
Here is a link to my build, please tell my what you think, Have I gone too far redneck or not?
