A couple of weekends ago some of us got together to build some tool boxes (we call them coffins) for the parks. Considering that we are mountain bikers and not wood workers it turned out to be a pretty interesting day.
It all started with the bases. We actually did pretty good being new at this construction business. Everyone learned something and Robin and I learned that the power tools can be very exciting especially when you put a fresh battery in them. WooHoo!
Once you get the base built you need to have the sides ready. Steve was great with the saw and cut all the pieces we needed. Some sizes may vary but in the end they all fit!
When the boxes were all together we then started on the tops. After several hours of cutting, painting and screwing (don’t go there) we had 5 completed tool boxes.
or coffins!
