I agree that safety concerns are very important (regarding ittle ones,
their fingers and need to be locked up grin.
I made this pineywood blanket chest about 15 or so years ago. Shellac and
many layers of pastewax. Never felt the need for upkeep of the finish.

One major move via our own Caravan (LI to Jersey).

Overall dimensions: ~23x46x31 1/2 inch (D/W/H), including overhang and
"handles". Hinges by El Cheapo, just let in. Quilts by better half.
