Thank you Ana for these plans!
This is a wonderful sandbox for toddlers, my kids love it. I build it a couple months ago, and it's gotten quite a bit of use already. So far it's even stood up to them jumping on it when it's closed, which is the only thing I was worried about. ;)
I'm not an experienced builder but i built this in an afternoon with the kids playing around in the yard with me, so this was a great project for me!
I used Minwax Polyshades, a stain and seal in one to finish this project. (I thought that would be a neat idea to skip a step, but I should have known that's usually a bad idea) I noticed that it didn't turn out to be nearly as dark as I expected and though I like how it turned out on this project just as well. I don't think that I'd buy another can when this one is used up.
