Here's the prize gentlemen:
A one-of-a-kind pirate-style chest.
Perfect for hiding your porn stash, pot, corporate bonuses, etc.
 
It measures 16" wide x 11" deep x 13
1/2" tall.
It's 1" thick maple banded in 1/8" steel, has custom built handles, lock and key.
All said, about $1500 worth of my time and material.
Just make a bad-ass or funny toaster from non-toaster parts and this is yours.

This is awesome. It totally rocks the fuk out of the knock-off chest we bought at the pottery barn.
I wish I could build a toaster. The I only thing I can build is peoples expectations of me. Then I knock them down.

Impressive work. You should think about posting a little Fabrication Porn for the manufacturing geeks.

I'm thinking the first of April, but if folks need more time, we can go May 1st.

That's okay.
Just hope the import tax guy doesn't value it very high, so you can afford to pick it up.

Wait, nevermind.
I checked with UPS and I think it's taken care of at my end.
Meanwhile, I've gotten the cage done and now I'm just waiting for the varnish to dry before I can finally put it all together.

Alright RP!
Let's see if you're as good with practical stuff as you are debating astrophysics.
The rules as of now are:
1. Your toaster must cook two slices of crispy toast.
2. Said toast must be edible by someone of reasonable sanity.
-Therefore I recommend a timer of some sort.
3. Though you can scavenge parts from any goddamned thing in existence, NO parts from an actual toaster may be used.
You simply post pics or video of your toaster and it's features here on linkswarm, and it will be judged by popular vote.

You should start a new thread so you can show us step by step how you made that treasure chest.

Fuck yeah Spanks. I find woodworking to be fascinating because I can't do it whatsoever.

You got it. http://www.linkswarm.com/thread-3485.html
BTW, that fucking yellow was throwing me off my stroke, so I took it back apart, sanded it down and stained it darker before hitting it with proper varnish this time. It's damp out, so it'll be awhile before it's dry. Again.

There. I'm done refinishing that goddamned box.
If anyone's into woodworking, allow me to warn you that maple is a motherfucker to get a good finish on.
BTW, It's been a couple of weeks now since we started this.
Anyone made any progress on their entries?

I have located most of my supplies. Now it's just a matter of getting them together and bending some metal.
Anyone else working on this in any seriousness?
And where should we post video of this toaster in action? |

Good question.
How about putting them in the Projex forum?

I will build mine in the last five minutes as usual. I do know what I am to build though.
