These thin boards ⬆️ became the dividers of Box № 11, a little tray for all the various turning chisels that were flying around the shop. Another easy, functional box made from softwood scraps. The lid simply rests on the frame; held in place by two thin slats.
Yes, the bottom and top panels are glued cross-grain. Because it's easy, and I want to know if they really fail over time 😛
Finished with one coat of shellac, then paste wax. Sooo smoooth…
Yeeees, I'm procrastinating on five other #50boxes designs that have all been in different half-finished states for several months now… All of them are at a point where I would need to try a new technique. Which could fail. And then I would be out of my comfort zone. Oh no.
I will dedicate the next few weeks to finishing those designs first, instead of starting new ones! I swear!!!!
@daniel_bohrer Post a list of those in-progress boxes and I'll hold you to that 
Nice joinery btw., not easy to do in soft wood.
@PalmAndNeedle the pressure to perform… 😰 🙀
yes, softwood means sharpening the chisels very well.
Nice work and good use of scrap.
