ok well that sucks, i just typed out how i made the lid but when I submitted it, i was asked to log in again and it lost all of it. sooooooo. I am on day 3 at the fire station but i go home tomorrow. I have been planning on making a video on how I made the lid. I will try and find a moment to do so when I make it home. I also think without pics for it would be hard to follow the directions just typed out.
here is a list of stuff you will need:
