First post on here but I recently finished this beetle kill pine box. I live in CO (where hardwood is scarce) so I have been trying to work more and more with the local flavor. Our local sawmill has a nice selection of beetle kill stuff at a very reasonable price so that's what I went with on this. Everything is made to move with only the dowels glued. The wood was pretty wet still when I planed it down so all of the dowel holes were slotted with the exception of the top hole (after the pictures) and everything can float. Only one crack opened up in the lid that got a bowtie later but otherwise its holding pillows/blankets nicely.
