Today in the shop I am making a Toy Box for Devon's daughter. We use a single sheet of ply wood and some fun hardware to give this a soft close and a hidden compartment in the bottom to make it that much more magical. We had to put this build on hold for a bit, and after a few modifications to our original ideas, finally have gotten it finished. This is a fun design and Devon's daughter enjoys it for sure.

Mount the gas shock on the back wall right under the door
Dustin, thank you. A great craftsmanship and a peaceful video. Thanks to you, I spent a pleasant 20 minutes during my Saturday Coffee. Stay safe and see you soon ✌🏻☕⚒️⚙️🌟
Thanks for watching and for the kind words
Cool build, Dustin!
Thanks Denis.
I love that when you put the magnetic false bottom in, I thought of JUMANJI when the music stopped and started when you open and closed it. lol
Put micro RFIDs on/in the toys. If they aren't checked back in before bedtime, the toy box automatically plays the Clean up! Clean up! Kids song.
That’s some serious planning😂
In steel or wood, it is the same. You are the Master Dustin! Congratulations for so great job my friend. Greetings from Madrid
🙏🙏🙏
If you lower the attachment point on the gas cylinder there will be constant force on the lid. The latch would hold it closed until released.
That's a brilliant box, love the top too. I wonder if his wee one will do what mine does with her box. Climb inside and shut herself in... 😁
Exactly what I would have done. Toys on the floor, myself in the box. It's a professional hide and seek tactic.
@@nefariousyawn True, but when she's doing it weeks after cutting the end of her finger off on a fire door it puts her poor daddy on edge!
Lol. Time will tell.
I'm sure a dragon or two will come flying out at some point, just gotta find that darned dragon scale first! Now, where'd I put that thing...hope it wasnt in that box of stuff I put out on the street for free the other day! Oh no! Someone already took it.
😂🐉
Maybe try a spring for auto closing gates. Can be installed to open instead of close and is a much stronger spring.
I like that idea. I’ll check it out.

How did you deal with the pinch point on the back of the lid?
It hasn’t been an issue. We though about just making a cushion to sit on top, and double as a bench, but that’s not needed really, since Devon’s daughter is only two.
How about using a dust bin pedal as the magic button
That’s a really good idea. Hmmmmmm.
I just did a review on the 50”-100” cutting guide on my channel. For $40 it’s well worth it. I also have the cutting guide you were using and it tends to be a little sloppy on the final cut. Great video!
Thanks for the suggestion.
I had a bigger version as a kid and I would throw most of the toys out and use it as a fort. Take a flashlight inside and close the lid.
