Craftsman perforated tool tray with cross folding handles

[Reversepolarity]

Picked up at a garage sale today. Anyone have any info on it. Never seen one like it.
The handles cross fold and lay flat.

IMO, it looks hacked from a conventional, but perforated tray they sold in the '60's. It looks like the ends were cut down and the folding handles added so it could be put into the top of a chest. I doubt the ends would have been left sharp and not hemmed over like the long sides. I have 1 of the trays at home and use it as a tool tote around the house.

The holes in the ends attaching the handles look to be at different distances from the bottom, and I doubt they used what looks like MS/AN type aircraft hardware to attach the handles to the tray.

Concur w Bob-B looks like it was cut down & modified -

Any one have any info on these craftsman perforated tool trays?

Local antique store was selling one (asking a bit much for me); something I haven't seen and wasn't having much luck on digging through the uncatalogued on rose's.
