<p>Does anyone know the screws used in this project?</p>
<p>A "shopping list" would be great next time too.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks! Hope to build this soon. Bought my Kreg 2 days ago, itching to use it.</p>

<p>I found this project to be the perfect way to start retirement and refresh my boat building skills,learned many years ago.</p>
<p>This is NOT a weekend project by any means. However, the video guides are great (they make it all look so easy!) as are the instructions and the cut list.</p>
<p>I worked with cedar, mostly purchased at a local Lowe's. They lacked several dimensions and I had to buy cedar elsewhere in different sizes, which I then cut to size with a table saw.</p>

<p>I worked with cedar, mostly purchased at a local Lowe's. They lacked several dimensions and I had to buy cedar elsewhere in different sizes, which I then cut to size with a table saw.</p>
<p>I worked outside on my deck, during one of the hottest and driest months on record here in Virginia. The wood was low in moisture content. But I knew eventually that rain would come, not only in August but of course in the Fall, Winter and Spring seasons.</p>
<p>I wanted a water proof box and the design clearly does not ensure this. It is curious that this project deck box would not be designed to shed water. So I modified the lids to be like deck hatches on boats. I'll try to include fotos to show this. The hatch lids did shed water. However I found that rain streaming down the side of the box (which had been urethaned twice), upon encountering the bottom of the box tended to turn in and onto the end of the wood slats, which had not been urethaned. The result was the wood inside became soaked from the bottom up several inches. So I had to add triangular drip edges, urethaned, on the bottom of the box to force the rain to drip off.</p>
<p>I have discovered also that cedar expands considerably under moist conditions, i.e. high humidity, such as those that typify our Fall, Winter and Spring seasons here. Thus the lid hatches have swelled and 'grown' sideways. I have had to plane the resulting excess to keep them from getting wedged together. I guess the only way to avoid this is to urethane all surfaces of the wood in the box, inside and out, so as to limit moisture uptake.</p>
<p>At the end of the day I am very happy with the box, in which I store tools and various supplies. It is a great looking addition to our deck, that my friends admire.</p>
