Toy Tote

Great job. Looks like a happy customer.

It’s a pretty cool tote, Mauricio. I like the idea of making octagonal (or whatever shaped) dowels. I’m sure your son will warm up to it. Plus, it could be a woodworking tote later on.

Mauricio, make your son a wooden bag with rope handles :). He will warm up to his new tote, don’t fret!!

Now that’s a car hauler. Some day his wife will steal that to put her gardening tools in. Nice job Mauricio.

It would be great if every child had one of these. Nice work.

Nice, Mauricio, I bet the little guy tries to show it off to everyone soon enough! :)

Heck, I like it so much, I plan to copy the rabbet and dowel joinery on a small shop tote!

Thanks for the comments folks. I’ve been wanting to make one of these for a while and its nice to knock out a quick projecKind of nice to knock out a project

Terry glad to be of inspiration. One tip, cut the rabbets extra wide and trim them flush after you drive the pegs, that will minimize the chance of the wood splitting.

Looks great Mauricio. The arched handle and dowels are excellent.

How did you affix the bottom?

-- ~Tony

Thanks Tony, the bottom is just glued on. You could dowel that on to reinforce the joint but I think it will hold fine for a long time with just glue.

That is cool. Nice work and I love the handle.
