Gorgeous style and colors. An heirloom of practical use for your lucky little one. This inspires a build of a similar pair of storage containers, but in square dimensions, with a door. My guy's man cave needs 2 side tables. Hey, maybe a matching coffee table, either top lid, or 2 side doors. Bye, gouged, rustic pine hand-me-downs!

Hi sir I just finished building this awesome box. Only thing I had problems with was I bought the 40inch lb hinges and it holds good but once it gets below 45degree it just drops just wondering if you had the same problem.
@JohnBuildsIt 3 жыл бұрын
Our toy box lid stays open all the time so far so I had to go check haha but no not at all! What type of wood use did you use for the top? Maybe it’s heavier than mine. I know they’re not cheap but maybe you could add a third hinge in the center, or reach out to Rockler and see what they say about it

Just getting started an if it's possible, I'll give it a go. Someone lemme know what they think please. Edit: thanks for the work man, this is actually exactly what I'm looking to build for my kiddo

@@JohnBuildsIt I did some small ones as a test. Was scared of the cut at first, the groove part, but it's not too bad. Now I have a reason to get a proper crosscut with a flat grind. Cheaper than a table router for sure. Thanks for the advice. I'll let you know how it goes in a week or so

Box turned out very nice...but why not paint the inside? Because the outside is white the inside looks unfinished to me. Also, many of the links you posted are either "out of stock" or "no longer available" Do you check them before posting them? I hate when PPL post links to something that I can not purchase. You and all the other YT'ers should check them before posting the links
@JohnBuildsIt 3 жыл бұрын
Toys will be thrown in and out, and the inside would look all beat up before long if it was white. I just clicked on every link and all but 2 were in stock.
