Well I've mostly been lurking here for a few years now, and I finally have something to post.
My LOML is good for picking someone in the family to give the box inside a box inside a box treatment for Christmas, so I thought it was her turn, but I did it woodworkers style.
I made a small fingerjoint box with hinged lid, a medium size fingerjoint box with a sliding lid, and a larger frame and raised panel box each fitting inside the other with the real prize inside the small box.
This was my first attempt at box making of any kind, alot of leasons learned with this project.
I didn't get them finished ( I told her it was so she could pick out the kind of finish she wanted ). Truth is the larger box came out of the clamps Chrstmas eve mourning, so I didn't have time.
I had to take the pictures with my cell phone so they did not turn out well at all. I hope I can get them uploaded as this is my first time to post pictures.
All advise is welcome.
Thank you, Matt.
