Nice clean looking toy box.
Question: How did you cut to top off?

Very elegant looking result.

Sure looks good in the back of your truck in front of your other job box. Only kidding. Where were you Saturday?

I’m sure glad your shop looks kinda like my shop with most flat surfaces covered with tools and material. We call that “horizontally challenged.” Keeping a horizontal surface clean is definitely a challenge to me.

Man I really like the way you did the bottom of the box. It certainly adds simple elegance to an otherwise humble shape. What an heirloom quality toy box, from the interior hinges to the hardwood trim. I am sure it wont end up on the curb like so many of those horrible plastic monstrosities do! I am certain your neighbors appreciate your obvious effort. Its gifts like those that are long remembered. You should sign and date the bottom of it so years from now it wont be a mystery who made it!

Thanks all! I should have a wood burning stamp made like everyone should. I cut the top off with my Festool tracksaw. That thing makes life too easy with the splinter guards on both sides of the blade, almost perfect cut. Funny when I brought it there his father had made a huge box about 6×4x4, very nice but painted. They were thrilled with both. Little Liv Lavender was only concerned with the cake. He always gives me salmon from Alaska and I fix anything that breaks on his house while he is fishing. His wife is about the sweetest gal in the world. Friends make the world GRAND.
