A Small Medieval Chest

Medieval homes were sparsely furnished by modern standards. The most common items were chests. They came in a variety of shapes and sizes. Besides serving as easily transportable storage containers, the chests also served as tables and chairs during the day and could be pulled together as beds at night. This note describes the construction of a small chest that can hold your valuables at an event and provide you with a comfortable seat. The length of the chest can easily be increased to hold longer items (banners, swords, etc.) and seat two. The chest is sturdy enough for hard use at camping events; the feet keep it off the damp ground. Although I use screws hidden by wooden plugs, the purist might prefer to use dowels. A carved design on the front adds a personal touch.
