Looking for a nice plan for kitchen bread box

Looking for a nice plan for kitchen bread box

I have a nice kitchen bread box. Made up the plans in me own 'ead.

What I did was lay some bread loaves out, measured the space, and made
a box that fit around that space. I actually used three large loaves,
with two on the bottom and one on the top and then made a box with a
sloping front that has a dowel hinge at the bottom for bread access.
I'll try ascii art to show what I mean:

(This is the side view)


The slope is actually a little greater and the top relatively wider
than I can show with the limitations of the art form. I used 3/4 inch
mahogany and finished it with Minwax Antique Oil finish.

More like asking. I don't eat bread often enough to warrant
keeping it out, it would spoil before I ate it. So I keep it in the
freezer, then drop a couple of slices in the toaster when I want some, I
like it toasted better anyway. If you google you can find several free
plans, whether you'd call them nice, I don't know.
