Adidas Shoe Box box


This project is of an ADIDAS shoe box made of wood. And oversized and holds 16 pairs of shoes. 


quick sketches. Cut/parts list. A simple build


First 2 walls cut. Man, it’s big.

The main box. Glue up

The drawer. Glue up

Lid all assembled

Mocked up all the elements. It is BIG. And heavy.

Box, lid, and drawers painted.

Installed a set of full extension slides with pull-close. Also 100lbs capacity! Though the drawer is 39lbs. haha


European hinges. Ugh... needs very specific sized holes made. 


Feet


Logos painted in. And pistons installed. The pistons allow for a safe soft open. The lid is heavy and needed this to control the speed and weight while it settles into the fully open position. Also tried to put in a few soft close. The full weight of the lid proves they do very little to slow the close. 


And the finish product:
