I decided it was time to make a firewood box that wold handle a couple days worth of wood. Last year's little chest wasn't going to get the same opportunity this year. The box is 3 ft wide by 2 ft in height. I created the box using #2 pine (1x12 & 1x3's) two hinges and a simple handle. Stain is same color as the farmhouse table and entryway organizer I built. I wanted it to have a label on the front of it. I carved "Firewood" using a traditional chisel and then burned it with a wood burning pen. Inside of the box, I created a little compartment for super cedars and the wood burning tools.

Great job
A picture of it full will make it even better ;)
 
Very nice and since you are in PA it could double as a coal bin as well, but I don't know if your stove can take coal. good luck
 
nice design, would be put to good use here today as it is raining out
 
Very nice . . . and practical.
 
Nice job Stax, my wife would love that in my house.
 
That is a nice addition to the wood burning essentials. Good work man. I like the look.
 
Thanks guys. It was fun making it. I will pack it tight tonight and let you know how much it holds.
 
No casters, but great idea. Was too lazy to take a pic. Thanks weather guy.
