How to make a Treasure Chest

This chest was made with scrap wood boards of approx. 5.50'' X 26.00'' and a 10.00'' X 11.75''

I had the idea of making it for my nephew so i decided to make an instructional video. I hope you enjoy and that it inspires you to make your own or come up with a different version.

Have fun and be safe!
Happy woodworking!
