A totally whimsical project, the "Turtle Toy-Box" is crafted from solid maple and will be a treasure for years to come. It provides storage space that's ideal for toys, books or games, and is sturdy enough to provide a place for a child to sit and read a book or tie their shoes. Since it's designed for children, the top is attached with child safety hinges to prevent accidental closure, and the hinges close slowly to protect little ones' fingers. The highlight of this project is David Marks' demonstration of the process for dying the wood for lively "turtle-like" colors.
