Stanley 71 Router Plane Box from Pine & Meranti

Cool box and great way to design on the fly (to cover mistakes).
I like it and the fact that it is for a Stanley router makes it even better.
Boxes for tools are very cool.
Great job and thanks for sharing.

Beautiful, oops and all. Remember, 98% of the people cannot nail two boards together… :)

Nice box, i made one too. I was practing hand cutting dove tails. so I know what you mean when you find ways to cover up little mistakes. I think that it kind of the norm rather than the exception . Every once in awhile everything goes right and then that become the build I measure everything from, but unfortunately I am not at a point where they all come out perfect. I imaging Paul Sellers and the like can do it, but that is there full time job. Anyway nice job .

NIcely made. Thanks for calling out your mistakes as it is good for all of us remember they happen, but call them out as successful handling of the mistakes.

Nice work. I really like how you did the holders for the fence and irons.

That’s something I want to build for my 71. I really like that latch you used.
