My grandbaby will be turning 1 next month and this would be the perfect birthday present for her and all her toys! I look forward to helping my hubs build it!
Yes, very encouraging. The great thing about wood is that you can always fix a boo-boo. It would be real helpful to comment on about how many hours of construction a project took, to help viewers decide whether to try to replicate it for ourselves.
This is one of the best videos I've found for a basic toy box. I am curious if you have any estimation on how much the finished box weighs? I would want something similar without the wheels but am concerned about overall weight.
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. I have no idea what the weight is. They actually didn’t use the wheels. It’s not too heavy. Because of the size, it took two of us to load it into their SUV. Being able to slide in on the floor isn’t an issue. Of course, It will depend on the type of toys you store. Thanks again!
You can get them at a Rockler store or at Rockler.com. I think I saw an email today. They are 25% off. Still not cheap, but worth it. You want what’s called the cabinet makers bundle. Good luck!
@@Ray_Herewow, thank you for the quick reply Ray! I’m currently about 3/4 of the way through building a Toy Box for my daughter, a little different to this but with much of the same processes involved and you’ve offered some fabulous tips! Sadly I’m in the UK, so I’ll use the information you’ve given me and try and find an alternative over this side of the pond! Thanks again - you’ve gained a new subscriber and I look forward to seeing more of your content
I hope you find something! I appreciate your comments and I love hearing from the UK. As I write this, I’m working on a hiking video. You might want to watch for it. I think it’s always interesting to see the different types of places we have to hike vs over there. Both are beautiful but in different ways. I watch a lot of. “Wild camping” videos from RUclipsrs in your neck of the woods.
I used a piano hinge. I think I covered that toward the end of the video. Thanks for watching and commenting. If you have any more questions, let me know. I have a lot of DIY videos. Check them out!
Hi sir I love your videos, you make great content. But your channel has less video views, if you run SEO and google ads on your videos, the views will increase. I will help you grow your channel if you want.

Thanks for letting me know Julie. I hope it works out for you!
Just built one for my granddaughter. Thank you for showing us how easily this can be made and we all make boo boos as you say.
Great Tim. I’m glad my video was helpful. Thanks for letting me know!
Great video. Loved seeing the mistakes and how you worked around them.
Thanks!!!
Thanks for sharing I can't wait to build a toy box for my kids!!
You’re welcome. Have fun!
Fun video! Thanks for sharing your mistakes and workarounds.
Thank you Steve!

Thank you. It took about 6-8 hours. I’ll try to mention that on my next video. I will go back and add it to the description.
Awesome video pal! Absolutely love seeing the booboos and workarounds makes you video so much more relatable 🤣
Thanks! I appreciate the comment!

It’s best not too add pocket holes against the board’s grain because of expansion and contraction.
Thanks. I’ve never had an issue with that.
Really want to find those 90° corner clamps and the ones you applied around the top of the box too to keep it square. They’re excellent

Great Video! First time seeing one of your videos. If I can ask, what method did you use to attach the lid to the chest?
I used a piano hinge. I think I covered that toward the end of the video. Thanks for watching and commenting. If you have any more questions, let me know. I have a lot of DIY videos. Check them out!
great explanation, great help for a beginner
Thanks! I appreciate the comment!
Great video, really appreciate seeing your mistakes. You mentioned at the end adding soft-close hinges. How would that work with the piano hinge?
The soft close goes on the inside to prevent little fingers from getting squashed. It works great with the piano hinge.
I can’t find the exact one I bought but here is a similar one on Amazon. I only used one. a.co/d/3gEln2c
How did you attach the plywood once you slid it into place? Thanks
1” wood screws.
Awesome! Do you have a cut list by chance?
I’m sorry! I do not have a cut list. In the video I talk about the dimensions a bit. I’m glad you liked the video.
Hi sir
I love your videos, you make great content. But your channel has less video views, if you run SEO and google ads on your videos, the views will increase. I will help you grow your channel if you want.
Thank you for you’re observation. I’m not interested.
