My son wanted a pencil box that could be 'secure' for his pencils, pens, etcetera at school, so here is the result.

Gordon,
That's great! I love that idea, you are winning some serious brownie points for that.

Thanks for sharing,
Emrys

P.S. Did you use tamper resistant hardware to hold the box together?

Yeah, it's a necropost, but this thread deserved to be bumped.
It's a pretty cool pencil box for a kid. Or even for an adult.

I remember back when I had a PO box that had a door like that one with the dial combo lock. Been a while.
