Nice work. Just be careful. I have had so much stuff stolen (truck broken into), I only bring what I can carry in a backpac

Thanks!

Understood. I wish I had the option to leave the stuff at home. I live in
Ct on the western end on LI sound. This box is not for my
local excursions, but for when I fish open ocean beaches on
multi-day trips. I wish I was as lucky as most of you to fish the
open ocean beaches when ever I want. I have to drive 3 hours one
way.... to fish in RI. When I go on these trips I am going blind.
Don't know the conditions or the local bait. So I need to pack a bit
more stuff to cover the bases.

I hope I never get broken into. It would definitely mess my
head up, as it is, I am paranoid.

Lowes. In fact everything was at lowes...but I am sure home depot
has similar stuff. In there door hardware section they had a couple
to choose from. I forgot to mention that these are probably prone
to rust as well, as they are most likely just steel. I attached them
with bolts, prior to knowing about pop rivets. They probably could
be attached better/easier with the 3/16 pop rivets...as the holes
seem to be almost the same size.

This is not the one...but the only one on the site I could locate. Its
called a draw latch or sometimes a loop latch. This one happens to
be stainless steel, but I do not know if it would fit on the box I
used. There was very little room for attachment and the ones I
picked fit perfectly.
