Building My Widowhood Boxes i have been requested by a young fancier who would like me to show him step by step instuctions on how im building my boxes as he will be doing this shortly . Please note these boxes are not as standard widowhood boxes as turned 90'degrees to suit myself and are 4 inch smaller than standard sized widowhood boxes as a sheets of chipboard is 8 FT X 4 FT so easier to work with half a sheet cutting down on overall costs .Please do not post on this board till i have completed the boxes , many thanks Mark |

the sheet cutting plans were taken in this morning , the wood cost £102.17 £3.20 of that was to have it cut , now a pack of jigsaw blades would be double and the time to cut down would be a couple of days so money well spent . Wood should arrive tomorrow morning , bang there goes my sleep in  |
