A Dump Truck Adventure #8: Bin

It has been 10 months gone by since the previous blog in this series. What can I say? Sometimes life gets in the way of woodworking.

I didn’t take pictures during the making. Here are a few pictures of the finished bin in which I will highlight some aspects

I used a box joint for strength using my 5 Min Kerfmaker. See my blog Kerf Maker Box Joints #1: Easy Box Joints - How To for details.

The hinge block for the bin

Yet again I used dowels to secure it for strength (View from the top)

Where the bin connects to the chassis

Cab overhang also secured with dowels
