Box of Fancy Pine, a build thread

[bandit571]

Went to Menard's and picked up some brushes...and a new latch ( old one is very beat up)

   
Even got out the drills and the screwdrivers..
 

   
Decided to just apply a coat of varnish to the box, insides, and out
 

   
A front view
  and a 

   
Corner view....will wait until the varnishing is done, then switch out the latches....should be in the same screw holes...as long as Murphy stays away


Almost done,,,May do a bit of showing off, when finished..if anyone is interested

[professore]

Always interested bandit!

Ok, finish is done, new latch replaced the old one..

   
Front view..
 

   
Top view..

   
Open the lid...
 

   
Then remove the tray and a false bottom..
  

   
And find even more storage below.    18" x 8-1/2" x 4-1/2" tall.  

Might call this project done...

There seems to be an optical illusion in that grain in the lid.......I can count 8 workmen at their workstations/benches.....take a squinty look, and see...

It looks like 8 beers to me.
