I did some more thinking about construction after looking closely atthe boxes online and also the ones that club members already have. Construction on these things isn’t rocket science. The ones I have seen don’t even use glued dado joints, just butt joints, maybe glued, and pinned with a finishing nailer. I think that even hot glue, which is pretty strong to begin with along with the finishing nailer would produce a box that would be more than adequately sturdy for our use. I spent all of last night redrawing my plans and streamlingthe actual construction and am going to start on it today, and if it goes as planned, I may even get the main box cut out and put together. The doors are going to take a little thought. I don’t like the gaps in the daos showing where smaller pieces were fittied in, so a little more careful planning and fitting will be in order. More to come. These don’t have to look like a piece of furniture, but they do need to look thought out.
