not sure if this is relevant Hinckley Past & Present | Local History | Past Times

I read it as a T, however, on closer inspection, there is a small vertical line to the left of the main vertical stroke, which has no other reason for being there. As the location can be indentified as Hinckley, I think that is a fair assumption

I watch pretty much all my tv through a humax freeview recorder (which I was lucky to find for £10 a few years ago), I record pretty much everything I watch, so skip through all the adverts, I also find it very useful for fast forwarding through shows. It tidies all the episodes of a series...

have never used kraftform, but I have had a set of wera diamond screw bits with my drill for at least ten years and have only broken one bit in that time, excellent

A was given a tool tote from aldi, loads of pockets, including one that runs right the way down the length for a saw, which seems pretty handy.

brilliant Christmas, normally have to cook for loads of people, fussy kids, fussy adults, loads of washing up, loads of stress, this year none of that, absolutely excellent. Best part of a horrible year

I would glue a baton of wood on the inside of the box and lid, then screw through the mdf into the baton. Not sure if that fits with your design?

Was wondering before this thread came up how firm a definition Japanese joinery is, presumably there is similar, or japanese influenced joinery across a lot of east asia?

like the idea of the waterproof element, I left my 'sephia' brand bluetooth speaker outside (doh!) one night and its not been quite the same since

worlds apart in terms of presentation, but I can't help being reminded of this (from about 3 mins in)

I've got a home made stereo that sits in my kitchen an gets used every day. Homemade Wooden Case, reused oval speakers from a tv, amplifier board and bluetooth mp3 board sent from china, some push buttons, I power it from the mains, using a 5 volt transformer salvaged from something. All in, I...

Standards are good, protection for everyone involved, common sizing etc etc, what is bad is nonsensical beaurocracy, where common sense is overlooked for the lack of the right box ticked, the right form filed etc. If everything is efficient and safe everybody wins

I like the steep pitch of the roof, can only help to keep it dry. As a storage shed, I would have gone for more of an outdoor wardrobe, double door on long side, pent roof rather than apex, as far as I can see you shouldn't need to step inside the shed at all, space for feet is space that could...

that's a nice idea about the padlock, not seen that before, luckily I've not had to lock up any toolboxes before, but nice to have the option

having never made one, I wasn't sure whether the horizontal pressure was enough for a firm lid, or whether it also needed the vertical pressure of the bevel(s) Can I ask does your lid have a carry handle? Also, do you wax or in any way lubricate the wedge, or is that just over egging the pudding?

in case people don't know what I'm talking about, this image shows the principle, the piece sticking out (the wedge) has a slight taper, so when it is pushed home it locks the lid some variations have a carry handle on the lid, I'm thinking that any beveling of the wedge (and other pieces on...

I can't honestly say I know for sure but my assumption would be that if were food safe it would be labelled as such very clearly, as it would be a selling point. you could try their customer services, or looking up a data sheet on the product

I was planning a variation on a japanese toolbox, the various designs I've seen online are roughly similar in terms of the lid, except that some have a slight bevel on the locking wedge, and others leave it out. Is it nessacery and what angle is best? thank you
