After Louis Bryant done the demo on how to make a box with a lid, I decided to take a shot at making one. It is made out of a piece of Mahogany scrap that the local milling shop threw out. I am pleased with how it turned out. It was a learning curve for me, as I used a glue block and double sided tape. I did cheat on doing the inside, I drilled it with a forstner bit. I left the wall thickness at 1/4 inch. I also left the inside of the top flat only because I forgot to do it before removing it from the glue block. I also left a small hole in the bottom. Not perfect but I like it. It has a couple of coats of CA/BLO on it.
Sorry about the lighting.
