The whole reason I bought a band saw was to make band saw boxes. I have owned the saw for eight years. This is the first and only box I have made with it thus far. I gave it to my mother-in-law for Christmas last year. I made this box from a tree I cut down in my yard.

omg. That is really nice. I bought my band saw for the same reason. I have only made two boxes both for my daughter. She finished them with markers. :)

Great work on the box . Would love to get some of that WRC for making the bowls I do on the RM . Back when I was making lots of band saw boxes I used to used various colors of flocking on the insides of the drawers.

looks awesome. I have only made one box and ended up cutting the drawers upside down, never tried again but have been getting the itch. One thing I saw was where someone use little felt tabs in the back of the drawers to make up for the saw kerf and keep the drawers even with the face.
