2x4 Pencil Box with Sliding lid

  • Опубликовано: 19 дек 2019
  • Years ago I came across an old house that was being renovated and spotted a 2x4 sticking out of the trash so I grabbed it. Since the growth rings were very tight and thought that I would build a nice box for some of my mechanical pencils with it.
    After planing the lumber and cutting the 2x4 into quarter sawn strips I glued a few of them up to create the base and the lid for my box.
    Hand planing and sanding the wood now saves a bunch of time down the road.
    ~ Dimensions ~
    I was only really concerned about the inside dimensions of the box which for me were:
    180mm long
    90mm wide
    25mm deep
    ~ Cutting ~
    After cutting the pieces to length, I needed to cut a thin groove down the length of the sides in this case 25mm from one edge.
    The front also needed to be cut through in order to allow for the lid to slide through resulting in a front that is 25 mm tall.
    ~ Fitting the lid ~
    In order to shape the lid, I used my block plane to chamfer the edge until it slid easily through the groove. Once the lid fit I then shaped the lid by blending the chamfer into a nice easy curve.
    ~ Glue up~
    To lend a hand with the glue up I used my 1x2x3 blocks to make sure things were nice and square. I also started off using Wood glue, then switched to CA glue as it is plenty strong enough and sets up much faster.
    ~ Finishing ~
    After the glue had cured it was time for some light sanding, mainly to remove the CA glue that soaked out.
    Once everything was sanded to 400 grit I applied a few thin coats of tung oil.

    Excellent use of stop blocks and nice stain for that type of wood. Well done!
    I also like shaving the lid to the angle, instead of cutting a dato on the edges for it to slide. That little extra touch.

      Yea, Some times I will do that, in this case I wasn't working to any specific side so I would double them up and clean up the difference. What I really should do is make a nice cross cut sled that has a proper stop block :)

      Stock blocks are amazing, as long as your are referencing the same thing, things should always constantly fit.

    Nice box Adam. I was doing the lat class of the year and explaining quarter sawn. At 00:10 is a perfect example of the opposite. But as you then went on to cut it into strips at 90 degrees, thus making quarter sawn pieces. Happy Christmas

      I'd kindly accept a saw stop from you.
      I use a push stick when the work pieces are very close to the blade as I am sure you saw. A 2x4 is within my comfortable zone of being able to control the work pice safely where a push stick to me feels less in control given the leverage of the material.
      I appreciate your concern for my safety.

      I learned a lot about making this box, and usually have a minimal amount of materials on hand since it's usually salvaged or found.
      I also prefer to make something based off of reference which is why most steps in this video don't involve measurements.
