    Hi All

    Hope you likem

    Excellent boxes and what a thoughtful idea! Top notch construction with those box joints and I really like the hinges on the red one. The way you fitted the lock hardware looks very professional as well. If I may ask - what is the timber and how did you finish them?
    When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.
