I had a leftover sheet of 1/2" plywood, so I built this toy box. The pocket holes didn't work very well on the 1/2" plywood, so I added some angle brackets for security, but it's a great toy box, bigger than I had imagined! I had to add a sheet of plywood in the open side because the bottom was too low for my 2 year old--toys kept falling in and he couldn't reach them, but kept trying to climb in after them!
