  • I am building a new pochade box in the next couple of weeks with plans and detail how to. Stay tuned/

  • First, those pins are called cotter pins.

    Second, is there some mechanism on that first box to cover the opening where the panels are slid into? I've seen a similar pochade box that had a hinged panel that came down over that opening and closed it up nice and tight.

    Anyway, I like your boxes. I'm looking at building one myself and this video gave me some ideas. Thanks for posting.

  • I didn't make a cover for the panel holding area. I just strap a rubber band cord around the box and off I go. The cord keeps the panels in place and the lid closed. Lazy, I know, but it is a practical box not an ornament ;)

  • Thanks!

  • The L Braket is a stanley but I would recommend that you look below the display at the bins and get a larger one similar to the one I used on the larget pochade.

    The palette is called Mijello Artelier Peel-off Palette. I can't post a link here but if you google you will find it. $19.95 Cdn.

  • Thanks Mike. I have no idea what these things are called LOL. I just go to the hard store and find what I need or figure out how I can use what is there.

see all

  • Wonderful video and great tips, thanks!

  • good job 

  • For someone who says they aren't very handy, those boxes look like they work very well.

    You use the wrong terms for a lot of items in your description but it's good enough for people to get the idea.

    Thanks for posting.

  • Great job Zan!

  • Here in the US we call those cotter pins. I just wondered where u got the l-brackets, the flat ones. Also, where did you get the covered palette u use-or what is it called? Great work!
