Tools required include only a table saw with a couple basic jigs ( crosscut sled, a miter sled though this is not completely necessary), some basic hand tools, as well as some sand paper and glue!

I like your design as well as your woodworking. Keep it up.
Very stunning tea box! I love the way you have the continuous grain of the spalted sycamore. - Ed
thanks so much! Its such a cool grain pattern, so unique I couldn't not wrap it lol
Nice job. A very attractive and useful piece to display on the countertop. 👍🏻
Thank you very much!
Lovely build. This turned out very well. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes :)
Man, that spalted sycamore is beautiful. Nice work dude!
It really is! thank you!
I loved it! thanks for sharing!
Beautiful, so good! 👏
Jezzer147 thanks so much!
Beautiful job! Great video, too!
Thank you very much!
FYI, when I have small surfaces to secure handles to lids, I'll drill a couple of holes in or through the lid and in the bottom of the handle and hammer in some wood dowels prior to gluing. Through holes in the lid make the holes in the bottom of the handle fairly easy to line up. Drill your holes in the lid and use nails or a brad point drill bit to mark the location for the holes in the bottom of the handle. However, for non through holes, you can drill some holes in the bottom of the handle, clip off the ends of some #17 or #18 nails, insert these in the handle holes and mark where the holes are to be drilled in the top of the lid. My explanations may not be the greatest, but you're a smart guy and I'm sure you get the idea. With the dowels and glue, haven't had a small handle fail yet. I hope this helps in future projects.
Honestly this sounds like a great method, I really appreciate the insight and tips! Ill have to try it out the next time Im going for a lid with a handle on top!
Looks great! 👍
Thanks! 👍
I picked your design for Christmas boxes, boxes I will be building. Could you tell me the length and width measurements? Thank you
Hey there! I really loved this video. I’m getting ready for my first box and this was what caught my eye. I’m working on my own design but I was inspired by your handle you used for the box. I’d love to get a bit more detail on how you cut that geometric shape out! Thanks.
Very nice job, well planned mostly and executed. Not a fan of the legs you used. They seemed a bit weak compared to the thought you put into the rest of the overall design. Tooth pick wood plugs I agree with another commenter would have been a good way to go from a strength stand-point. Like I said though nice job, thanks for the free content!
completely agree on all the things you said! I think there are a lot of ways I couldve improved this design so hopefully can add some of those tips in future builds!
