Tyrus Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Well, at least when your considering extra storage for wood or charcoal. I wanted something water proof or at least close to it so I built this box incorporating a ship lap top construction sealed with Gorilla glue at the seams for a weather tight seal. Handles had to applied just to move it, it was beastly heavy. The sides were seasoned pine boards tightly fitted and held with decking screws on to a sturdy frame. The whole box 6'x2'x2.5' sits a few inches above the ground to prevent decay with some 6x6 posts, remnants from the pavillion I built. Nothing fancy, fully functioal and could if needed possibly double as a casket for two. It does need some art work but that'll come later. Just an idea.

MacKenzie Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 Looks rodent proof to me. He should be able to see where they are chewing. I have a similar one that I keep bird seed in and the squirrels have attempted to chew into it but so far have failed.:) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted August 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 Rodents? I'm not storing anything edible in there and the worst I have is a groundhog living under one of my sheds. Nah, no worries..if Mac says I'm fine it's good for me. I also have an attack dog as deterrent, a Irish Jack always on the prowl. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
