The Shape Box prototype is finished

[dansnow]

Got the prototype for the shape box finished. 5.5" square, 6.5" high plus a 2" ball/handle. Colors are food dye, finish is clear spray lacquer.

 

In future versions I'll be re-arranging the shapes a little as I unintentionally ended up with a couple thin sections where the top slots in place.

 

Thanks for looking.

I remember my girls having a ball the the shapes slotted into and they loved it so any toddler would have hours of fun with your shape box.  Thats using the old grey matter.  Well done.

A very nice job Dan, that will keep the kids occupied for hours. Much nicer than the plastic c**p and it will last a whole lot longer.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions folks! 

Gluing together an updated version now. Swapped out a couple shapes for different ones, eliminated one shape so there are only 2 per side, re-arranged the shapes to eliminate a couple thin sections on the sides, and per suggestion made the shapes from 3/4" stock instead of 1/2". Will post pics when done.
