Project Information
I wanted more protection for my rules than the paper envelopes they came with. I had some scrap mahogany strips from ripping some table legs. I ripped the maple strips from some 1/8th stock bought at Rockler. The "tenon caps" were done with the table saw and auxiliary fence. I got lucky with a nice snug fit from the start. I like the friction fit better than adding latch hardware. I eased the edges with a chamfer router bit. The finish is wipe on poly then Birchwood Casey Stock Sheen/Conditioner (from my gun stock refinishing days). Finally I added the felt for cushioning.
