Keep your kids’ craft supplies neat and tidy with a strong, sturdy storage box. Large enough to fit in all their pencils, crayons, brushes and pens, internal dividers keep everything separate so they’re fast and easy to find. Then, when playtime is over, just make sure they put everything back in before sliding on the lid.
EASY STEPS TO MAKE YOUR PENCIL BOX
Gather your supplies
• 89 x 19mm x 1.8m dressed pine
• 897 x 600 x 7mm plywood
Components
Sides 89 x 19 x 300mm dressed pine (3)
Front 71 x 19 x 300mm dressed pine (1)
Handle 18 x 19 x 300mm dressed pine (1)
Lid, Bottom 270 x 270 x 7mm plywood (2)
You’ll also need
Trimmer fitted with a 6mm straight cut bit; mitre saw; masking tape; PVA glue; ratchet strap; measuring tape; 20mm nails; hammer; sandpaper; undercoat; enamel paint; clear varnish; painting equipment
Here’s how
STEP 1 To make a channel in the pine for lid to slide into, use your trimmer with guide attached to cut a 5mm deep channel along the pine, 10mm from 1 edge. Adjust guide to widen the channel by 1.5mm to allow the plywood to fit and slide easily. Make another pass.
