    • @jakerizzi4173
      @jakerizzi4173 8 місяців тому +13

      Just built this exact box recently from REI’s plans online. The front door needs to be short on the bottom by the thickness so that it opens properly with the hinge on the inside. You then have a seamless transition from the box to the “workspace” without a gap which would be present if the hinge was on the outside and the door the full height

    Reminds me of the camp box we had in the Scout troop my son and I were in back in the mid to late 1990's. It was called "Goliath" and it was BIG! Somebody made it to survive. It was 3/4" plywood, stained brown to appear "woodsy", and had many coats of something on it to make it resistant to everything, including scouts. It would take at least four older scouts and/or adults to load/unload it. The younger scouts were in charge of setting up the saw horses Goliath went on. Wherever Goliath was set up was where he stayed until we were loading to go home. It did not matter if it was a weekend or a week. Goliath stayed where he was setup. My guess is goliath was 3' X 2' by 20" with two sectioned areas in the top portion for smaller stuff. Your video brings back great memories..... thanks!

    We have half a dozen of these in my kids' scout troop. We call them patrol boxes and are stocked very similarly. One even has detachable legs that slide into slots at each end as cross bars for portage. As a new patrol is founded, they get to refurbish and redecorate a box to suit, so they're all different colors.
    One observation: portability is pretty rough on corners of these boxes. Perhaps reinforce them.
    And metal loop handles on the sides are also very convenient, since it's the perfect place to tie a garbage bag.

  • @brucemccauley8887
    @brucemccauley8887 8 місяців тому +1

    We used these in our boy scout troop all the time. We put brackets on the sides at the bottom that chamfer cut 2x4's could fit into for legs so they were stand-alone pieces. That, and carry handles on the sides made them easy to move, setup, and use. They are awesome boxes. Great work!!

    I really enjoy the clock in the background on this. Obviously 99% of people will realize you didn't build this in 7 minutes, but I like to know the actual time it took YOU to do this. I don't build stuff like this hardly ever, so it would take me longer than you I'm sure. But about 3.5 hours for this is reasonable in my mind. Unless you're building them on a production level 😅. Nice set up as always!

  • @RockymountainMike

    Tip: after you applied the glue to the plate/cup/bowl dividers. Before your place the divider on the glue sprinkle saw dust on the glue and it will prevent it from sliding around when you clamp it down. Nice quality build. It’s satisfying using pocket holes. 🤙🏽

    @chrisborowski5090 8 місяців тому

    Hey Cody, love the design of this set, it'll fit perfectly in your elk hunting camp. Something you might want to keep in mind when using pocket screws is that you generally want to use them on the "outside" of a box. although the pocket screw is primarily just a clamp for the glue, drilling the holes and adding the screws from the outside of the joint will give a lot more wood for the screw to grab on too. It's probably fine for this application though. Keep up the great videos!

    I think how long it takes vs thought on how long depends on how old and mature you are, a 12 yr old could slap one together in an hr, but, lacking craftsmanship and quality, the older you get, the more careful you are, the better the craftsmanship, but, also retaining the thought you could do it in the same amount of time, and at 50, its magnified even more, higher quality and more time yet still thinking its going to go quickly.

    If you really want it upscale, split the front cover door, and use ice box latches.
