Nice, clear detailed video. I have been keeping the outside scrap you teimmed off for another bookmatched lid for a narrower box later since the 2 outside edges still match up. I actually saw what i was doing wrong with this board flipping method on the miters. Thanks for not making it an hour of unnecessary dialog.
Man, talk about precise, you are good. I appreciate your use of both old world and new world sawing technology. You're doing really great work, I finally found the set screws on my portable delta and am turning out some amazing 4 corner grain matching walnut boxes that are gorgeous!
Very nice video! I'm just starting out and want to make a few boxes before I move up to bigger stuff. This was really helpful, and your thought process along the way was especially useful. Thanks!
Thank you! I've been looking all week for a jig or idea to cut splines into my boxes. That jig gave me the perfect idea(I'll never use a table saw, no matter the benefits)
You asked for suggestions; how about run that v-router bit (or a saw kerf) around the box to hide where the lid is located. Just a thin groove all the way around. Not that it would take a 5 year old that long to figure out but for aesthetics. But it was a nice video/build. Thanks.
Just an observation: When you started cutting the 8 miters you kept them in order so the grain would be continuous all the way around! With all 4 sides being cut from 1 length of wood how does the grain match from the first miter to the last miter being the fourth corner ?
@xisotopex sometimes you can moisten one face and it will even out. If memory serves, wet the concave side and set that face down. When it dries, it should be close. Do a test if you can. It's been a while since I tried this.
Subscribed. Great explanation on this build. My compliments to the design committee.

@jimmyers7396 Thanks! I'm glad it made sense.

@gt5.075 thanks! I'm glad you got something out of it! 😂
Thanks Dave for the info and update on the plans
Hey Jackie, The plans are now available on my website. www.trullgallery.com/shop
It’s a beautiful box and I would love to have the plans
It may take a few weeks but ill post them on my website. Once they are up, I'll add a link.

I've used this on a router table too.

Cool idea. Thanks!
Beautiful box. Thanks for the ideas and for leaving out annoying music. Say hi to the design team .
Thanks!
Amazing

@timyedo6510 the last corner doesn't match. It can be done, but that adds a bit more work & requires resawing your stock.
I have some 1/4 inch thick lacewood about 24" long and 5" wide that has cupped along the length.... is there any way to recover it so it can be used?
