Children's Convertible Sandbox

Ideal for a small child, a summer cottage - games, fresh air, a river or a pool, and always a sandbox.
A country sandbox with a hinged lid and a bench is the most practical option for a sand playground for a summer residence. By blocking access to sand for cats and dogs, this design provides the baby with more comfort and opportunities during games.
It is not difficult to make the summer sandbox for the baby with the hands shown in the photo.
To save such valuable time at the cottage, you need to prepare for work in advance by buying boards for the side walls and lids, timber, a special canvas for the bottom, door hinges and handles, as well as screws or screws necessary for assembling the structure. You can purchase all these elements in the hypermarket of construction products. Here, cut boards and timber into pieces of the required length.
The first stage of assembly is the installation of sandbox boxes made of boards fastened to each other by pieces of timber and screws.
The bottom of the sandbox is made of a special breathable fabric or agrofabric, which is attached to the bottom of the box with a construction stapler.
The sandbox cover is mounted of four segments: two motionlessly fixed on the box and two more, fastened with each other door hinges
The fixed parts of the roof serve as an abutment for the closed lid and the base for the bench seat when the sandbox is open.
Sewn to one of the moving parts, the bars hold the back of the bench in the open state and serve as fastenings for door handles, used to lift the lid of the sandbox.
To protect against moisture and temperature extremes, the finished sandbox is coated with a special, water-repellent solution, or painted with oil paint.
