Same, I enjoy a homemade tool build.  Built a router cabinet / drawer here couple years back.  Got lots of good input and suggestions for it.  

 

YUP, I liked that one too.

I’d love to follow that, if you’re up for it.

If you mean a step by step build, I’ll give it a try.  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...

I’ll give it a try once I’m ready...

Love all the boxes. The brass really makes the walnut pop.

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

Paul, no glue?  These are put together wet, correct?  What keeps the pegs from falling out when it dries down?

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.
