Hi all,
I usually answer here so I'm hoping somebody can help me for a change!
I am making a pirate treasure chest out of an hinged 6btl wine box for a small boy.
Rather than add ironmongery to the box to replicate the external brace hinges / brackets, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get mdf / wood / hinges or brace brackets to glue on instead?
the box is approx. 40cm in length. (I will be staining same, adding pull handles to the sides etc) I would need minimum of 8, possibly 16 if I double place them.
As cheap as possible is VERY important!! I have looked on ebay, contacted a few sellers but no joy as yet. I would like to buy in Ireland if possible.
All suggestions, offers, ideas welcome

This is an idea of the shape,
