I am reasonably handy but have NO talent for building or creating things. I am a writer. I have picked up a skill or two here or there so I figured I would use this as a learning opportunity and work on throwing a toy box together for my daughter. So far my idea and execution are turning out better then I thought. I took inspiration from some pictures I saw online. It’s not perfect but it’s stout and will hold some toys and I am proud of what my untalented dumb ass could hammer out. No beeding yet though. It’s not a project without blood. The box as she stands today. I braced the floor with a big ass 2x4...in case she wants to store ammo. "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | ||

Nice! I’m sure she’ll love it for her toys! | |||

I like the look. I think you’ll want bigger handles. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. JALLEN 10/18/18 https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...610094844#7610094844 | |||

I like it! I've been considering a similar style for some outdoor garden planters. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Cool! The only thing I could think of is a 2x6 when she starts shopping for a Barrett. | |||

Nice job there Dad! I agree that a little stouter handles might work better. But then, if it will not be moved around much those handles may do just fine.

Very nice looking. Are you going to put a lid on it? The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.

So, let's be honest like a dad is in his own mind. What, if anything, aren't you happy with or would have done differently? You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

Going to put a lid with slow close shocks. Handles are really just decorative. So far I am pleased with it. I have lots of sanding and touch up painting to do. "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | |||

She might climb in there playing hide and seek or something so be careful if you put a latch on it. But it looks really nice. | |||

Shit, I am thinking of climbing in there and hiding from everybody. "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | |||

Nice job dad! I still have the toy box that my dad built for me when I was quite small. Complete with the saw marks I made with the hand saw that came in the carpenter's tool box set I got shortly after... | |||

Did you consider casters? And yeah... those shoes? -Rob I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888 A=A | |||

I agree with BurtonRW. Looks good but what about some wheels? If she gets enough toys in it might get heavy. | |||

Nice box! Casters will be a good suggestion if you plan to move it around without taking all of the toys out. The shoes: rollerskates? *** "Aut viam inveniam aut faciam (I will either find a way or make one)." -- Hannibal Barca | |||
