Default Another Toy Box

G'day all,
Another toy box, just completed. This time for a little boy.

It is about 600mm cubed.
The letters and hand holds where scrolled so only part of it is off topic

Thanks Roger,
The Box is about 24" high, wide and deep.
It has 4 casters underneath so is quite easy to move.

There are some pic of the 1st one I made here if you're intyerested.

Looks great JohnB, but I think you should have posted it in the Bragging Section.
All your toys should be in there. Nice job.

Great box. I too think this should have been in the bragging section. What material is it made of? Looks like some kind of plastic.

Thanks everyone,
You're great for the ego

Tammy, the box is made from MDF.
2 coats of primer, 2 coats of colour and 2 clear top coats.

John Do you know Santa Clause? You put his elves to shame. I bet you could get a job with him. Keep up the great work. I see King Arther (Excalibur) is working out for you.
