How big ? How authentic ? Waterproof ? Lockable ? With handles ?
What have you got to make it out off, or with ?
I usually do something like this:
http://codesmiths.com/shed/things/boxes/sarah/
Bottom half is a simple softwood box constructed with pegged open
tenons. Height is just whatever fits the plank I have to hand. The
base is lengthwise or crosswise boards, with a simple V-groove
battening between them (simpler than T&G).
The upper half is two arched ends, pegged to rails that fit into a
notch. The coopered top _must_ be coopered with an accurately cut
chamfer on each edge, or it looks terrible. The staves are again
pegged into place.
Add ironwork strapping, or a tarred cloth cover, to taste. Easiest way
to tar things is with a bitumen-based flat roof primer paint, used
cold. Hot tar is more fun though 8-)
