Never done that before, I usually get zoned in when building or turning something, but I’ll give it a shot. First I have to see if my old craftsman belt sander even works.....I think it does...

No brass, but copper tacks is what you see. It’s only those tacks and some small pegs that hold this together...no glue.

Hi Cal. Nope no glue at all. The pegs are tapped in to a specific sized hole though the body of the box and though the box bottom, which is 1/4 inch thick. Most people use the round tooth picks cut in half. Once it’s tapped in it’s cutoff and sanded smooth. p_toad, Al B, Cal and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
