This small box is made from scrap pieces around the shop. Cherry box with mitered corners and red oak keys. Top and bottom panels are made from mdf veneered with lacewood. My first attempt at veneer, my second attempt with a hinged lid. The proportions are a tad "?" in that not much fits inside...

Last week was my first trip into the shop for any work in awhile - just been too hot. This a little box that I made last week. It is about 3"x6"x3.25" tall. I don't recall the species of wood that I used for the box, just some scraps that I had lying around. The lid is hinged, with brass...

Another bench with storage, built from 2×12's and 1×6's. I used thinner stock for the rails this time in order to maximize the inside width. The corners are again pegged with dowels, this time 2 different sizes per corner because they are what I had on hand. The lid on this bench is hinged, just...

Last year my mom got a nice hammer dulcimer for her birthday, and asked if I could make a folding stand for it. She wanted to be able to play it sitting and standing, so the stand needed a method of adjustment. First, I thought about doing some sort of sliding dovetail and locking pin...

I keep building boxes mostly because I enjoy them and their neat to give away, but because I don't have a dedicated workbench (or really an open table to work on other than my table saw) to work on and it limits me because my shop is so unorganized right now and I need to build my workbench. So...

This table was made for a former co-worker that I have done several past projects for as well. he seems to like my work. He asked that a small side table be made for his bedroom, where he could have some storage space under the lid. He gave me some dimensions and left the wood choices with me...

Remember my last wood gloat? (the $60 of Walnut and Cherry) Well this is about %1 of that wood made into a box! I didnt know what I wanted to make, so decided I'd start off simple and small. I'm still a a beginner at this whole woodworking thing, so did a lot of firsts. Didn't turn out...
