Great story, this girl invented it and took it to our national fielddays, ( it's big here). And sold thousands of them, then it really took off. Kiwis are known for our inventiveness. Let me know what you think of it please.

That looks interesting. Many times I wish I just had a smaller piece of wood for the box. This might do the trick without having to set up the saw.
