Guest Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 They look really great mate -- looks like you got youre self a full time job doing 100 box es I did the cheap thing of getting the Britains boxes & i d have to say they rubbish compared to yours thats for sure -- Years ago when i was a lad on my 1st farm job i got the yearly job of repairing all the farms boxes which by the year end i was a little fed up with & i did nt ask for it -- I say you ll get a few orders for these if you re hands are up for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 These look fantastic! Bored yet? ha ha! He he, I wouldn't say i'm bored, just wish they could be done quicker. I have been making them in stages, i'll have the photograph the different stages do them in The worst part is gluing the long horizontal bit to the two end parts as it need to be kept square other wise the box becomes miss-shaped!!!!

Thought about weathering them, but then I looked into making them as they really are, found a supplier of miniature timbers and mocked up a drawing based on the sizes of wood available We will see after I've complete the quantity I want to make, but due to the time they take to build, and with all the other things I want to make, I will probably move onto the next item!
