Is it possible to build a skate/snowboard box with just plywood and nails?

Question

and if it is, can you help me a bit? i have this idea for me and my brother (he skates, i snowboard), but i dont have enough money to buy one, or to buy the less basic materials (i dont know where to get those anyway).

Answer 1

Plywood and screws (not nails) could make a basics snowboard box, but the top would not last very long with the snowboard edges scraping across the wood. Make sure to "sink" the screws into the top sheet so the snowboard doesn't get damaged.

Better yet, when your plywood box is done, put a sheet of HDPE on the top with counter sunk screws and it will be a much better box and will last much longer. You can find get sheets of HDPE at a local plastic store or on the web:
