    Hi,

    Hoping it's ok to post this here. Just looking for some advice on getting a custom wooden box produced, as I'm not sure where to start looking or what a reasonable price would be.

    I have a small retail business, and I'm looking for a new supplier of wooden boxes. The design is a very basic rectangular box, made from around 9mm OSB, with the dimensions approximately 300x200x200mm.

    Any tips or recommendations appreciated!

    Thanks

    You would need to specify the base as well. Never worked with OSB - will it stand up to hard abuse ?

    OSB doesnt fix too well with butt joints and screws, unless a corner fillet
    is used for strength.

    So weight may be an issue in the construction process.......is it.


    @Recipio if you,ve never worked with OSB...............you,ve missed out on nothing:)
