Reader Project: Toolbox with Radio

How to make a tool box with radio

This is my new mancave radio. I was totally fed up with my old radio and the inability to tune a station, when I stumbled onto the radio my son had removed from his Toyota truck. I purchased the following to create this toolbox radio:

• Set of four speakers ($40)
• Old toolbox on Craigslist ($15)
• Computer power supply ($8)
• Antenna ($7)

Other items like the switch, RCA connectors and antifreeze bottles I had on hand. So far this tool box with radio works great and is a huge upgrade to my shop! I no longer have to spend several minutes trying to tune a random station every time I enter. — David L. Harmon
