Spent all day yesterday with final designing, painting and cutting. My last Christmas/holiday design is finished. Well except for the ornaments.
Got it down to only 9 (1/8” mdf) boards. I think that is a new record for me! Lol
Pretty easy build and cut, longest cut time was 22 mins for the side overlays. Most of the other cuts were under 10 mins. Just need two 3” rubber bands. Of course I have a huge bag full of them now! Lol
The tray with the locking mechanism slides out if you need to replace the rubber bands.
@rbtdanforth This only unlocks on the 25th. You put one present in and turn the dial for each day, then when you the 25th the box unlocks and you can get the present out.
That looks great! And I am in awe of the cleverness of it…
In the late summer I was planning to make several of your holiday village designs, but after breaking my left arm and tearing up my right shoulder Labor Day weekend, I had to put that aside. I’ve decided that when I have the use of both hands again (late January), I will have a whole 11 months to work on them!
