I can't think of one good reason why
everyone
doesn't have some of those D.Coates 5 frame nuc boxes. They are so simple to make and serve so many purposes it's ridiculous.
2 sheets of plywood = 8 nuc boxes.
How long did that take you Yankee11?

I love that pattern. I cheat a little. I buy the 4 ply at lowes and I get them to do all the rip cuts on thier big saw. So when I bring
them home ther are already cut in strips. I just do the cross cuts and put together. Some times they charge me 25 cents per cut after the first 2 cuts sometimes they dont.
Took me about 4 hrs to do those eight yesterday.
Started about 3pm and was done and cleaned up before Walking Dead started at 8pm...
