Hello! Been far too long since I've been here.
My lovely partner has asked me to build a box. We travel to historical recreation events by car, and want a box to hold our dishes to be used during feasts: plates, bowls, eating and serving utensils, drinkware and the like. Plus, the box should be of suitable height and build to be used as a seat for a substantial person. The box will also be used outdoors at times, so box should have legs.
I'm happy to buy (and perhaps modify) plans, but am having trouble identifying one to start with. I'm not comfortable winging it, especially when it comes to joinery and hardware.
Any tips or suggestions are most appreciated.
