Stacked box for storing fruits and vegetables

Dear site visitors, from the material presented by the author, you will learn how to make collapsible boxes for storing vegetables and fruits from a regular board. Let's go)

This type of box is more rational in use, because the box can be made of any height due to stacked sections. Each section has a capacity of 3.5 buckets of potatoes, 3 combined sections is already a dozen buckets of potatoes) Also, unlike simple boxes in a lean year, they are only half full, where the floor of the box will be empty, and in the collapsible section the box is simply removed and our box is full to failure)

Such boxes are made quite simply and there is nothing complicated, one section is a box without a bottom and a lid, only “flats” are installed at the corners, they then serve to assemble the structure of the typeset drawer. The lower section is equipped with a bottom from the same board, as well as trimmed with metal mesh so that rodents could not get inside the box and spoil the harvest.

In the upper part, a lid is made in the form of a wooden frame trimmed with a fine-mesh metal mesh, fastened to a hinge and a latch is made.
And so, let's take a closer look at everything and consider what exactly is needed to make this box?

1. board 25-30 mm
2. metal fine mesh
3. wood screws

Step-by-step instructions for creating a collapsible box do it yourself.

Everything is easier than simple friends) from a board with a width of 15 cm and a thickness of 2-2.3 -3 cm, a box is made without a bottom and a lid with sides 75x45 cm, a kind of rectangle. In each individual case, the sizes can be different depending on how many vegetables and fruits you have for storage, as well as the area for placing the box. It is desirable to paint the box with paint.The author has done many sections at once.They are instructed one upon another.And so we raise to the height we need.We get the box.The length of the wall is 75 cm.It is long = 45 cm, also in the end parts of each section convenient handles are made for transfer and assembly-disassembly.In each of the 4 corners, flats are fixed that extend to the surface above the walls of the box by 2 cm and thereby hold the next section of the typesetter.These blocks are screwed with the help of wood screws.The author has prepared them in large quantities (with a margin) The shape is quite simple, 2 cm is removed at the top - this is the same protruding part from the box.Since the structure does not have rigidity, such metal corners are attached to the corners with self-tapping screws.Handles are also made of wood.Easy peasy.The lowest drawer is equipped with the bottom of the same planks.The bottom is finished with a fine-mesh metal mesh, as a means of combating insects and rodents.The lid of the drawer is as follows, a wooden frame trimmed with fine mesh.The latch is installed.In the upper part of the flats are sawn under the base of the box.We install the cover on the hinges.That's actually such a composing box.As you can see, making this kind of box is very simple and the material you can use is available, which makes the finished product cheaper, budget and very simple)
