To go from a mess..

Simple..I put the toys away...most went into the toy chest...

Some onto the doors..

Rest went into all the racks and holders in the main section...then just close the doors..

That brown plastic case is an Xacto Knife Set....
May windup building a rack for all these to sit in....maybe?

May have a job to do, later ( after running the Big Green Bissel carpet cleaner) something about a panel...
Stay tuned....might start a build thread....

Still waiting on this right hand's palm to heal up....before I start any more projects....kind of tender, right where a plane's rear handle would be rubbing.....need to joint some edges..

Before this can become a panel....then I can build a box under it....
