Sand Box For Kids Views
Place the lid storage end-piece into the open end of the sandbox and fasten with the 3-inch screws. Tap the two blocks into place at the lid storage end to keep raccoons and kids from crawling underneath. These boards sit 1 inch in from the L-shaped cut in the internal frame boards and are set into the dirt 1/2 inch lower. Screw in with 3-inch screws. Double check the levels and squareness of the box. Measure across the two diagonals between the far corners. If your box is square, the diagonals should be equal. Tap the frame with the mallet to make changes. To level the box, pry up the boards, push a few handfuls of dirt underneath and tamp the boards down.
To build the seat for the lid storage end of the sandbox, again use board-and-batten style, with the four lid-end seat pieces as boards and the remaining four lid battens as battens. This time, screw the seat together so that two of the battens are on the very ends and the other two are spaced evenly. Screw the seat onto the frame with 1 1/2-inch screws.
