Another of my projects that I have just finished in the last hour. The woodwork was completed before all I had to was get and fit the piano hinge and the soft close stay, so now it can go to it's new home as a toy box for the Grandson. Which I am sure he will fill it very quick.
The box is 36" long by 20" deep and 20" at the tallest point

Great toybox Dereck, one of the projects high on my list of to dos as my grandaughter is now a toddler.

Can I ask why you painted the inside and what type of paint as my first thoughts are that it would chip off when he chucks his toys in. Also does it have feet / buffers or are you fitting castors, I'm undecided.

cheers
Bob
