I then followed the step-by-step instructions and photos to complete the cover, inside box, shelves and drawers.
I added sentiments (17 to choose from including some humourous ones) and finished with a selection of the tools provided. They include paint brushes, saw, work boots, beer, chisels. red tool box. hard hat, drill etc so can be personalized to suit many trades!
It took about 3 hours to complete, but to be honest I enjoyed every moment of my playtime. It's not difficult - but you will find tweezers and 3D glue useful.

Wonderful and creative Curiosity Book Box by Jan McFarlane that's a special keepsake gift. It's filled with mini tools and the perfect gift for the man who has everything! The outer book has a spine and tab fastener which opens to reveal shelves and drawers - they really open crammed with tools, spilled paint, brushes, beer and man-junk There's a pocket and clipboard/tag for your message.
Printed out all the pages onto 180gsm white card. Scored and folded as per instructions. (Thicker card would be more difficult to manage with several layers glued together for the covers).
