Courtesy of Frank Parsick...sorry he's not on the net and no, I don't have the
specs for how he did it.  However, it's basically a wooden box with hinges on
the inside and a latch to keep it from falling down.  It's intended for "dirty"
storage like leveling bricks, hoses, etc. and there's a drain hole in the
bottom in case water splashes in.
