Thank you for taking your time to share this lovely box with us!" I’m still waiting for the laminated door verticals to cure so I thought I would make a box for my daughter. It’s an easy build using one pattern and the shaper origin. I used 1/2” SOSS barrel hinges for the lid. Paul
January 26, 20242 yr Author Thanks for all the comments 😊 The Sapele is so hard and closed grain that the end grain is almost as pretty as the long grain. I’m not that happy with the SOSS barrel hinges but I have a bag of them from a long time ago and figured I should start using them up. They are so deep that it prevents any profile other than what you see or maybe a very slightly larger round over. I’m going back to a nicely fitted lid with no hinges. Paul
January 26, 20242 yr Excellent Paul. Love the personalized detail on the lid. I'm sure she'll cherish it.
