Since I still had some left over scraps of Ash....maybe a Frame &Panel style of lidded box...Panels are 1/4"-3/8" thick resawn Ash...frames are 3/4" x 3/4" 'sticks"....Also, a bit of Tongue & Groove joints for the corners....instead of my usual Box/Finger joinery....
The Project Post, all done.JPG
No stain was used, either...just 3 coats of Amber Shellac...followed by 3 coats of Clear Gloss Poly...
Inside? 2 Pine racks are glued to the pine floor...
The Project Post, 4 shaves.JPG
Since I had 4 spokeshaves, needed slots to hold them..
The Project Post, chained lid.JPG
A chain was added to the lid, to control how far back it leans..

Most of the panels needed a beveled edge to fit into the 1/4" grooves...all bevels are on the inside.
Size? Standing at 5-1/2" tall ( feet are 1-1/2" tall...is 7-1/4" front to back, and is 12-3/8" long/wide....
Just using up scraps, rather than burn them..
