Another Chess/Checkers Board

[keithbyrd]

I have made toy boxes for each of my grandchildren - all different. Here is one made with a board inlaid in the top. Made out of Brazilian Cherry and Hickory. If I remember right it is 36x24x24. poor lighting!

Great work.

Wow! That's a nice "Toy Box"! When they outgrow the toys they can use it as a chest.

 

[Woodchipper]

Great looking project!

Love it. Nice work and detail. The extra banding brings it out. What sort of lid closure did you use on it. That is a huge thing here these days. Has to be child safe and soft close. Can not lock.

Thanks John. I got them from Rockler - they are soft close, non lock, and support up to 200 pounds. Three hinges on the lid. This box is 9 years old now and have had no trouble.

That was the idea!
