Watertight Box to Keep Grill Stuff

I like to use my smoker on the weekends.I got tired of being nagged at for keeping my grill stuff in the living room.The problem was how to keep things dry.I thought about using pond liner for the inside,way to expensive.I came up with an alternative.This works just fine and should last a long time.Play nice with the power tools,keep your fingers.This is made from pallet wood.I designed this to hold two full bags of charcoal.

tools:

table saw

miter saw

caulking gun

staple gun

brad nailer

sander

razor knife

supplys:

aprox 72' of wood

tar paper

outdoor glue

outdoor stain

waterbase poly

spray glue

black waterproof caulking

This is pretty basic.A 16"x15" box.2' tall

Sides (24)2 1/2"X 24"

Bottom (6) 2 1/2"x14"

top(6)3"x 15 3/4"

lid sides(2)1 1/2" x16 3/4"

(2)1 1/2"X17"

You will also need to rip enough 3/4"x3/4" for bracing

give the wood a quick sand

I built the sides first,do not build the box.Next build the top.The bottom was done last,I did not seal the bottom as I wanted to keep an airflow.

Use tarpaper and a staple gun to attach paper to interior sides and underside of top.Use caulking where the paper meets the bracing.

I nailed the sides together first,then the bottom.Make sure to square the box first before nailing the bottom boards.After its built use the caulking on the corners.

Stain n poly,if you want to add a graphics,use spray adheasive and poly right over it.I grabbed the graphic from the net.

any? just ask
