Wilson142 Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Very nice! Especially the rose. They are the type of things that when I see them, I'd like to touch them. Some things are for the eyes only. OCtoolguy and John B 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson River Rick Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Outstanding work John, the cutting is flawless and the finish is second to none. I would be interested in making a few of these boxes. Have you everposted a tutorial on your build process, if not would you consider it? Thanks for sharing your fine work.

G'day Rick, I knocked up these a few years ago for a mate. If you have any questions just ask. To cut the bevel on the front lozenge, set the saw at about 5deg then test on a piece of timber the same thickness as the box sides. I try and get the piece to come out approx 6mm. It has to protrude enough to allow a ply insert backed with felt to fit and not protrude into the inside of the box. I fix this piece of ply to the back of the face with tape so that it is cut at the same time as I cut the lozenge. The ends go between the face and back, I use a nail gun and 35mm pins to assemble it. Then once the glue is dry I sand with 120g / 180g, 240g and 360g before fixing on the corners with glue and band clamps. The top is glued and clamped.
