I have been thinking that I needed some wooden boxes for a while now. Growing up, my Dad always built them so I was used to having them around. Especially with Small Mister so much in our home, the boxes kept sounding like a good idea. My Dad suggested that we use 1/4" plywood with 1" x 12" x 16" ends. No supports down the seems.
We have five boxes made now. I cut the tops today so the three we have with the chairs have tops. I am actually going to retrofit 1"x 1" supports on the bottoms. I pull out the hand tools. My Beloved pulls out the power tools. I guess that tells you a lot, yes?
I am also going to pick up some 1/2" plywood and build some more boxes. There is going to be a kitchen camping box and a clothes box. Two boxes to throw in the back of the Suburban. With a cooler, we would be almost ready to go except for bedding.
I have been enjoying working with wood lately. There is a table I want but I do not have the need. But I may build all my own kitchen counters and storage underneath. I really like the old European kitchens I see where everything is wood and open shelving. It gives me thoughts. And the need for my hand tools.
