Popular Post munzieb Posted April 26, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 Found a small fret box pattern I liked. Bubinga wood. Too small for hinges on the top so did a drop in top. Could not stack cut sides because they are too small. Shellac and lacquer finish. meflick, frankorona, TexasDIY and 19 others 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don in brooklin on Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 That is really cool. What size it and do you know who the pattern maker is? Thanks for posting. munzieb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankEV Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 That is just a great looking box. Great fretwork cutting and I love that you mitered the vertical side wall joints. top and bottom very nicely detailed. munzieb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAC1961 Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 Beautiful work! What's bubinga like to cut? It's one I've never used and I'm usually a little apprehensive of exotics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockytime Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 WOW, that's a gorgeous box. I'm totally impressed with the mitered corners. I don't know what tool or saw you use to that but dang, it looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preprius Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 I like it. I think the choice of wood was great. I will need to order some bubinga. But I see a lot work and a lot of holes. I need a vacation to make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what tool or saw you use to that but dang, it looks good. Easier than you think. If it was 1/2" or larger material, I would have to cut the miters on a table saw or router but since it's only 1/4" I use my belt/disc sander. It has a plate on the disc side where the angle can be adjusted and I set it to 30 degrees. It has a sliding miter on the plate and I feed the piece against the disc until I get a sharp edge. I just make sure all the pieces are the same length. I did the same with all the small pieces I used for stops on the top. meflick and danny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
