Shrinkmd asked me in a P.M. if I had any plans for a powder box. I only had an autocad file convertible to a pdf. Since THR has an "attachment" feature I attached it to this post. Anyone is welcome to use, critique, improve, or do whatever you want with it.
Obviously you can add more verticals to each side and make it as large as you want....or increase the length of the verticals to increase height.
Parts list isn't needed if you can count. 2 of each collar piece or 4, 2 of each plywood piece or 4, and 26 2x4 verticals (or however many you add).
Next day Afterthought. There are those who think the government requirement of an 1" thick was "nominal" or really 3/4". I've seen both arguments. So for those leaning toward "nominal," feel free to replace the 2x4's with 1x4's and 3/4" plywood to 1/2" or anything combination of that!!! You probably should increase inner plywood sizes an 1 1/2" each way to lessen the indent. Personally, I think the standard was made when a board was really 1" not 3/4".
