Help: need a wooden box

i reckon nicking a shopping basket from ur local supermarket would be a better idea - less likely to disentergrate after getting wet etc. plus in my opinion would look nicer.
howver, if u/the missus has your heart set on wood... this has been a very unproductive post! :)

I'm building a bike that should look as if it from the 70's and a plastic blue basket with "TESCO" written across it will defintely add a 'classic' feel to it!
