You can follow the instructions posted on Instructables to make your own Hylian lockbox, and check out the video after the jump to see (and hear!) it in action. Just be sure that you make everything to scale -- if you make the chest too large, you're going to have to put something way more awesome in it.
Protect your slingshots with an authentic Zelda treasure chest (with sound!)

Are you looking for a quick-and-easy storage solution for the adventure-ready knick-knacks you've got laying around the house? Oh, sure, you could probably just tuck that slingshot, Deku stick and empty bottle into any old Rubbermaid tub, but if you're looking for a more authentic way to put things into other things you need a real-life Legend of Zelda treasure chest, complete with brief musical interlude. (You know the one.)

I want to believe that this got voted down because you said "Winning" and ever since Charlie Sheen jumped the shark, saying "Winning" should result in an instant fail...like i'm sure my comment will by discussing it :-)

Knowing my luck it will contain 200 rupees when I have a maxed out wallet.

Sweet. Imma put LED Lights in the bottom, place it in an omnious place inside of my house so when visitors come around i get to say the words:
"This'd better be a heart container and not be 100 Rupees again because i've totally maxed out my wallet at 99 already"
"This'd better be a heart container and not be 100 Rupees again because i've totally maxed out my wallet at 99 already"

Man...I really hope it's not a gold rupee with my wallet all maxed out and everything.

Oh man, this gives me the greatest idea. Make the "opening chest" music my doorbell. Whenever someone rings my doorbell, I time it so that the opening of the door coincides with the "get item" part.
OH MAN OH MAN OH MAN I'm off to Home Depot right nowwwwww

And the chest contains nothing.

It should glow, like in pulp fiction.
Now THAT is an awkward crossover in your brains now.

Now they have to find a way to teleport the item from the chest to my upheld hands and have it hover there.

Pretty nice. I'd keep my bud bag in it. and my magical pipe.
and a red lighter.
the remaining space would be dedicated to storing DREAMS.
