The idea from Jochen from Berlin:

I would like a cutlery box for our narrow drawer. He should be 21cm wide, 7cm high and 47 cm long (outer dimensions). The division should be as in the drawing.

Hello Joshua,
Thank you for your reply. I'm not sure if you have a more elaborate solution than what I wanted in my head. At the very least, the production time of 72 hours set by you and the material costs of 30 EURO imply this. I need a very simple solution that will be in a drawer in the kitchen. Maybe you could google again for a cutlery tray and see what simpler solutions you could build?
Best regards
Jochen

I have gone through the stages to complete the tray with measurement... 47.5cm x 21 cm.
The first stage is measuring the wood for the work
Cutting the sizes
Sand paper aplied
Glued
Nailed them together
Applied the veneer wood
And finally applied the vanish and dry

Hello, Elizabeth,
it looks very nice what you did. However, I have just seen that the division of the compartments is different than on my drawing. But I saw that this was an error in the system, so that customer photos were not yet displayed to craftsmen in Ghana. You should see the photo with the drawing now. The Urban Change Lab will bear the additional costs resulting from this error. You should contact your Local Operations Manager.
If you fix the bug it would be great if the partitions between the compartments were a little thinner, then you lose less space in the drawer.
Many greetings
Jochen
Elizabeth Amponsah 20 Aug 2018 9:12 am
Hello Jochen. I was faced with a slight challenge over he weekend. I will be sending feedback on completion today.
Thank you.

okay
Elizabeth Amponsah 23 Aug 2018 10:15 pm
We have finally completed the project. The partitioning was done as seen in drawing. This version came out better but if you dont mind i can send you both. Kindly have a look and confirm.

Hello Elizabeth, looking great, thank you very much! I only need the one cutlery box, which has the dimensions as on the drawing. It is important that you have kept the measurements exactly, otherwise the cutlery box does not fit into the drawer. Could you please take a few more photos of the finished box and send them?
Elizabeth Amponsah 24 Aug 2018 7:17 pm
Hello JoChen. The dimension's are the same as you directed and it was hand made. Thank you.
Automated Translation 24 Aug 2018 7:32 pm

Hello Elizabeth, thank you very much for the beautiful photos! I am just a little concerned, because I have just seen that on my drawing 47.5 cm are indicated I have written in the text 47 cm. 47 cm would just about fit in the drawer. It can't be any longer.
I hope that fits and look forward to the drawer insert 🙂
Elizabeth Amponsah 24 Aug 2018 11:24 pm
Hello Jochen. I hope it fits the space perfectly because we used your measurements. What address do I use for sending the product please?
Automated Translation 25 Aug 2018 11:51 am
25 Aug 2018 11:46 am: bays
Hello Elizabeth, I meant with my question if you used the 47cm from the text or the 47,5cm from the photo. The best thing to do is to measure the box and send me the exact dimensions it has become. I don't want us to know if it fits until delivery. Many greetings
Jochen
Elizabeth Amponsah 26 Aug 2018 12:09 pm
Hello John. I used the dimensions in the photo 47.5 x 21 x 12 (cm).
Any further changes will mean building everything from scratch . Do let me know your take on that please
Automated Translation 26 Aug 2018 1:18 pm
26 Aug 2018 1:16 pm: Jochen
Hello, Elizabeth, that's too bad. Unfortunately, that was my fault. Since I really only a cutlery box in the dimensions 47cm (long) times 21cm (wide) times 7cm (high) I have to ask you to make another cutlery box. By the way, the 12 cm on the drawing did not mean the height but the distance for the front compartment. Of course I will cover the additional costs (material and working time). Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Elizabeth Amponsah 27 Aug 2018 1:46 am
Hello Jochen. I will work on another one then with measurement 47cm long. 21cm wide. 6cm high.
Automated Translation 27 Aug 2018 10:31 am

Thank you very much! And yes, 6cm high is perfect.

alright
Elizabeth Amponsah 09 Sep 2018 7:23 pm
Hello Jochen. The work is done. Thanks for your patience . It was done to your specification 47cm x 21cm x 6cm. Going forward I hope we'll get the measurements right so we don't make mistakes. May I know if funds would be sentitled for the shipment

Hello Jochen. Thank you for the opportunity to make corrections on the previous work. Please kindly state the measurements again in centimetres so i can proceed with the construction.
Thank you for the opportunity once again.

Hello Elizabeth, I would say to avoid any risk, make the box 20.5 cm wide, 6.5 cm high and 46.5 cm long. These are the outer dimensions. Please divide the inside as shown in the drawing, i.e. the front compartment 12 cm. Please use thinner wood so that not so much space is lost. Maybe you could send me a drawing with the measurements first, then I'll check it again.
Elizabeth Amponsah 17 Nov 2018 8:37 am
Hello Jochen I have attached a drawing of the tray with the measurements for your observation and approval.
Thank you
Automated Translation 24 Nov 2018 7:09 pm

Hello Elizabeth, yes that looks very good and are the correct dimensions on the outside.
