You have just answered one of the hundred or so questions that always
bothered me. I have just such a toolbox (but not the book). I couldn't
figure out what the hell they were expecting you to put in there. I ended
up putting clean rags there, and it works out OK. But now you have solved
what I've always regarded as a long standing mystery. (Although the rags
do stay).
