A plywood container, which includes:
- a base sheet of a length L1 and a width W1 and a thickness AX, said base sheet having a first peripheral edge, a second peripheral edge, a third peripheral edge, and a fourth peripheral edge, wherein said first peripheral edge and said second peripheral edge of said base sheet are opposing each other and have a length L1 and said third peripheral edge and said fourth peripheral edge of said base sheet are opposing each other and have a width W1, and each of said peripheral edges includes at least one notched portion of a depth of AX and at least one un-notched portion;
- a first side sheet and a second side sheet, each said side sheet of length of about L1 and a height of about H1 and a thickness about AX, and said side sheet each having a first peripheral edge, a second peripheral edge, a third peripheral edge and a fourth peripheral edge with at least one notch of a depth of about AX, said first peripheral edge of each side sheet has at least one notched portion and at least one un-notched portion which are complementary configured to respectively receive said at least un-notched portion and said at least one notched portion of at least one of said first peripheral edge and said second peripheral edge of the base sheet;
- a first end sheet and a second end sheet, each said end sheet of width of about W1 and a height of about H1 and a thickness of about AX, each said end sheet having a first peripheral edge, a second peripheral edge, a third peripheral edge and a fourth peripheral edge, each said said peripheral edge having at least one notch of a depth of about AX, said first peripheral edge of each end sheet has at least one notched portion and at least one un-notched portion which are complementary configured to respectively receive said at least one un-notched portion and said at least one notched portion of one of said third peripheral edge and said fourth peripheral edge of said base sheet, and said third peripheral edge and said fourth peripheral edge of each said end sheet has at least one notched portion and said at least one un-notched portion which are complementary configured to respectively receive said un-notched portion and said at least one notched portion of at least one said third peripheral edge and said fourth peripheral edge of at least one of each said side sheet;
- and
- a top sheet of a length of about L1 and a width about W1 and a thickness of about AX, said top sheet having a first peripheral edge, a second peripheral edge, a third peripheral edge, and fourth peripheral edge, wherein said first peripheral edge and said second peripheral edge of said top sheet are opposing each other and have a length L1 and said third peripheral edge and said fourth peripheral edge of said top sheet are opposing each other and have a width W1, and each of said peripheral edges includes at least one notched portion of a depth of about AX and at least one un-notched portion, wherein said second peripheral edge of each side sheet has at least one said notched portion and said un-notched portion which are complementary configured to receive said at least one said un-notched portion and said notched portion of at least one of said first peripheral edge and said second peripheral edge of said top sheet, and said second peripheral edge of each said end sheet has at least one said notched portion and said un-notched portion which are complementary configured to receive said at least one un-notched portion and said notched portion of at least one of said third peripheral edge and said fourth peripheral edge of said top sheet, wherein each said peripheral edge has an arcuate transition portion interconnecting each said notched portion and said un-notched portion, said peripheral edge including a burr free surface laser formed and which assures an accurate and easy assembly of said sheets.
