Box with fancy corners
Imagine a box, that looks like it is hinged at each corner....and the wood looks like someone had merely folded a plank into the shape of a box. And looks like it could also be unfolded, and laid out flat....
What looks like the barrels of hinges in the mitered corners, is really just a fancy spline...A thin, book-matched lid (1/4") tops things off. And, yes the grain from that single board does go all the way around...matching up at each corner...
Mini "Shaker Pegs" were modified to make small "bun" feet. A stain to bring out the grain of the Ash a little better...and a couple coats of clear gloss poly....Long sides are 3/4" x 4" x 12"...ends are 3/4" x 4" x 6".....cut in order from a single 1x6 Ash plank. There IS a latch....a small magnet in the lid latches onto a steel square mortised into the top edge of the front.
