Storage and transport box for wet paintings


As I mentioned in my previous post I felt I needed some means of transporting my wet paintings back home and or storing them temporarily if we were in our camper. I found some bits and pieces in the workshop and came up with the above box.

It is not cabinet maker standard but it is strong and practical. It is basically two lengths of 4ins x 1ins with four slots held apart with a third piece at the bottom.
The front is merely the back of one of the primed boards the rear is permanently attached to give the box rigidity. The top is merely hinged with a catch.  It will hold Four 18ins x 14 ins primed boards. This is a good size for my Jullian easel.

I will probably fix a handle on it, maybe pinch some webbing from Mrs Cox's sewing bric a brac.
