Backstory:
So, the plan with this one is to create a "take a penny, leave a penny" type bin for toys at the beach near me. It's been a great learning experience in woodworking and I even got to justify the purchase of more power tools!
The idea came to me on the near-daily walks with Zoey on the beach. There are so many plastic toys getting left on the beach, and I felt they could be reused. Since the City of San Diego is too gigantic to deal with such an issue, I reached out to the Pacific Beach Town Council, but heard nothing back. I plan to plop it down anyway, and see what happens.
My wife and I have been gathering abandoned toys on our morning walks for awhile now, so it should have a pretty good start.
