I love this
I have been looking for one to put on my desk the kind that British apprentices would make
it has one drawer in the center that is made of sheet metal in the inside (horizontal)
it was used to hold the machinist handbook

Machinist boxes are distinct for the Machinist Handbook compartment. For what ever reason, typically wood boxes [ie Gerstner] the drawer is vertical, depth is half height of Machinists Handbook for easy retrieval, and close fitting in length and width.
Metal boxes are primarily oriented horizontally and just as close fitting. It looks very hard to get it out though; unless one of the chosen few with a third eye and a degree of flair.
There is a hole, about an inch in diameter in the drawer bottom. You poke a finger through, book raises high enough to get spine above edge of drawer to grasp normally.
We always had a lot of fun about that with the 'new guy'. No matter how his question was phrased, there were ready TINS answers.
Then he learned, are 2 kinds of stories. TINS and fairy tales, only one difference; one starts "Once upon a time. . ."
