Popular Post jr42 Posted October 11, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 I've been seeing a lot of people posting pix of projects with lights so I decided to try one myself. I designed this light box today, making it so you can change out the front panel for different holidays. This one is obviously for Halloween. The panel was cut out using a Pegas #3R Reverse Skip Blade. The sides, top and bottom are all cut out of 1/2" red oak plywood. The front and back panel are 1/4" red oak plywood. The bottom back panel and sides are glued together. The top can be removed and the front panel will slide out. I will post the pattern and how to make the box later. I was unable to finish the box today due to weather as it was too humid to spray it. 20211011_171511.mp4 jollyred, Tomanydogs, Scrappile and 9 others 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Very cool idea and well done.. I'd be tempted to paint the front panel black so it would show up more as a silhouette. Just a thought.. Great job either way. jr42 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
