Hi Chief Tiff,

Back in my days everything was mortice and tenon with wedges for added strength but I'm assuming things have changed quite a bit since then. I'm actually a former carpenter & joiner...

Hi Chief Tiff,

Thanks for the reply and yes that picture is of the fake variety but is what is throughout the rest of the house. I'm just wanting to match what is already here and would be very...

Hi,

Have recently moved into a new house that has open plan living which is ok except for what is now going to be the home theatre room which has an over sized door opening which I would like to...

I bet they were! :)

Me I'm still fluffing around trying to decide on which timbers to use and where to get them from. :?

Cheers,

That is a very nice looking job you have done, I bet the recipients were happy!

Cheers,
John

Good for you for having a go at it. What timber did you end up using? I would really like to see some photos? :)

Cheers,
John

Yes that is indeed quite amazing and would be a test of my skills that is for sure!

And I can vouch how nice Steve's boxes are because I have one of his works of art in my hot little hands as we speak, they are truly beautiful.

Jim that was the thing, you could create your own and insert whatever picture you wanted. Have a look at the end of the commercial where it asks you to view it again or create your own. :)

Hi Jack,

Yes in theory I agreed with some of what he had to say, but he got it all balls-ed up in how he put it across that is for sure.

Well six months down the track and my project is just a pipe dream after all. :~ As much as I would have liked to have pursued it I just could not dig up enough information on where to even begin,...

I suppose now that I would like to attempt box #2 (yeah the hardest one) I should start actually reading up on the subject. Any books, or recommended articles on-line that I should most definitely be...

Yes I would have to agree with you on all of the above that is for sure, and I should practise what I preach with the KISS methodology, but that never goes to plan either.

Cheers
John

Yes me to!

They are rather stunning looking pencil cases and would be good if someone could make one, but whether that is me or not is an other question. :)

Cheers

Hi,

Thanks for the replies people. I have done a bit of a search in this forum and I have found a couple of different pencil boxes but nothing like accommodating 120 of them.

Thanks

Hi Karl,

I had forgotten about U-bild, I remember I used to look at their designs in the 70s.

And by the looks of it some of the designs have not changed since then, but they do have 2...

Hi,

I'm sure this has been asked lots of times, but does anyone have any cubby house plans or know where I could access some from. I've done a search but have not come up with anything at all. ...
