Diy Covered Sandbox With Seats

5 1x4 furring strips actual furring strips are 3 3 8 wide not 3 1 2 as a normal 1x4 would be 2 2x8s.

Diy covered sandbox with seats.

Don t forget to flush the ends of the boards with the side of the box. Diy covered sandbox with a built in bench. Create the bench back. Attach with three hinges per side on the top of the sandbox.

This easy to build sandbox with built in seats is a reader favorite and has been built thousands of times. Deck screws spaced every eight inches or so through the seat boards and into the box below. Repeat this step again to make a second bench bottom for the other side of the sandbox. I adore this diy sandbox with fold out seats so much.

Everyone with a sand box knows that lids are a necessity. Attach the bench bottom. Attach the three slats that will make up the first segment of the top cover bench seat. These make your diy sandbox much nicer by offering a place to sit or rest toys snacks drinks and whatever else you and your child need.

But double duty lids are crazy awesome especially if they convert to a seat.
