Neat. Does the bottom part fold up?

Neat. Does the bottom part fold up? Yes, it is on a piano hinge and folds up makeing the front of the box. If forgot you didn't get to see it at the last event. |

I'm assuming Otto has a much better tool inventory than I do. If he needs something to do I have some GI stuff to build.

We found a Box Joint Jig and use a router with it. Also a cheap table saw (unfortunately we can't do Tongue and Groove) and a chop saw. Aside from some hand tools and an electric sander that's it. What did you need? We have a long list of boxes and crates we want to build. This was our second, and likely to ever be the most complicated. Now that we know what we are doing the next boxes will come much faster.

All those I could use. Trying to cut things squarely with a hand circular saw is much too time consuming. I built a K-ration crate yesterday and it took way too long to cut six panels to the right size. Next time you two work on stuff give me a call, it wouldn't take long to make more with proper tools.

If you guys are interested in a radial arm saw, let me know, I need to get rid of one and I am willing to give it away for a good cause!

It's yours then, just need to mount it to a table and you are good to go.
