More of the same….layout…saw the lines, chop out the waste
Then, use these to lay out the matching fingers..
Then, saw leaving the lines, chop out the waste…try a dry fit…
And, IF you need a mallet to join the 2 halves….should be tight enough…then, repeat for the last corner..
Next? Need a jig set up…
Dig out the Stanley#45…
Need to reset the depth stop…
To 3/16” deep. Cutter is a #12 (1/4” wide)....time to get groovy…
Helps IF you are going with the grain….then you get,,
Noodles. Might be a tad crunchie, though.. run all 4 sides through. Then, layout and cut a plywood bottom..
And hope it fits…..seems to be about the right size.
Next, knock this all apart…spread some glue around…add some cauls and an army of clamps..
And let this sit a day…tomorrow, I can work on a lid, of some sort…
Stay tuned..

Get twice as groovy and put the lid in the top groove, then saw off the top of the box? Raised panel, maybe?
