I just ordered another couple of jugs of powder; it'll get here tomorrow. I couldn't pass up the good deal. This will put me over the limit for what I should have stored in my house. I'm going to move all the big containers (anything over 1 pound) to a big wooden box out in my detached garage. I already have the box; it's built like a footlocker out of 3/4" exterior-grade plywood, and it has a hasp.
Thanks,

- Do I need to line the box with more 3/8" plywood to bring the thickness up to >1" to bring it up to current fire code?
- Is it better to leave the box unmarked or to put one of those diamond "Explosives" labels on it?
- Since I'm not going to store blackpowder in it, I assume one lock is enough?
- Would it be a good idea to put a few hundred pounds of lead ingots in the bottom so nobody tries to steal it?
Thanks,
Bob
