Storage box started

Well, I must say that my first attempt at woodworking since I was in 7th grade has gone extremely well (much better than I had anticipated). Here’s some pics of the storage box I am building where the back seat of my Jeep used to be.

This 2×4 is going to be bolted through the floor, and is where the hinges will be attached

3/4″ Birch Plywood is what the rest will be made from

this is the front of the box where it will latch shut…..I will be bolting this piece thru the metal seat support that is behind it.

next i got one half of the cover that will hinge backwards to open

now both of them

then i cut 2 small pieces to fill the open section on each side. they are just setting there for now

I just need to assemble it, paint it and get some hinges, latches, and handles. It should be completed next weekend.
