To hauls stuff with it you want the stakes on the outside and the boards on the sides on the inside held on with carriage bolts with the nuts on the outside. not as pretty as having the boards on the outside but this way the boards push against the stakes when you have a load against them.

I understand your theory with why you'd put the boards on the inside, but in doing so you'd lose width by the thickness of the boards...since the inside edge of the stake pocket is the outside edge of the box.
I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to make a removeable ladder-type rack for mine so I can haul 20' lengths of steel on it without having to remove the tool box.
