About this Workshop
This small box was originally designed as a place to store a phone and limit distractions, but it also works perfectly as a keepsake box, a place to stash keys, or simply a beautiful object to admire. Whatever its purpose, it is sure to attract attention. The dovetails are the star of the show, complemented by a distinctive base with integral feet and quarter-round molding. An overhanging top balances the design and completes the overall look. The finished box will be a piece students are proud to display or give as a special gift.
Key Points
- Students will get a chance to refine their dovetail skills, with several possible methods demonstrated
- Learn how to raise the panel for the lid on the table saw, with some simple jigs ensuring safety and accuracy
- Creating the “feet” will involve some creative table saw and router table work
- Incorporate a decorative quarter-round molding to set off the base
- Glue-up and assembly strategies that apply to larger and smaller work
