rpike Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I made a late decision to build my girls each their own toy box for christmas, but was able to finish these on christmas eve. They are 36"x18"x24" and built of poplar, 1/4" MDF (for the recessed panels) and 5/8" ply for the bottom and lid. This was my first attempt at upholstery, and it seems to have turned out well. I spent 20 hours between the 3 from start to finish, but that doesn't include the 30 minutes of doodling the design on my outfeed table (which doubles as a really big scratch pad).

rpike Posted February 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 They look great. How did u attach the upholstery? The upholstery is stapled to the 5/8" ply lid. It was fairly simple and only took about an hour for all three lids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
