Thanks Trifern, Scott, Rikkor and All members.
I do woodworking as a hobby. Since I have limited working-space, I just learn to build tools-box, small keepsafe boxes and wall/hanging cabinets for own use.
I enjoy learning the ww process ,finding solution or applying techniques and methods of doing certain ww tasks. Cutting mortise & tenons for instance, I used to do it with handsaw and chisel. I came to know using router on router table when made a search on the internet of how a beading is cut. I never attended formal woodworking class. I learn ww by watching woodworker at work (more of capenter rather than woodworker), reading books, ww forum or blogs and the likes.
With that background, I do not think I can contribute….. I am here to learn from you all.
Yes I agree with you Scott ! Woodworking is an expensive hobby.
The pic of me : that was my last punch-out then retired at 55.
The best wishes to you all.

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.
God Bless

Hi, I would probably split the lid on the box first then glue the intarsia to it. It might work the other way but I doubt I would chance it since the intarsia pieces tend to be small and you put a lot of effort into making the pieces fit together and shaping them.
