well i guess im the last one that hasn't made one yet ? and probably never will ! nice work on yours rick. now what is the double top for ? why not just one ?all the ones ive seen are done this way.
working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
Pottz.... the double top is how Roy Underhill makes his. The second one down slides to cover the grease or in my case the wood butter. The top one pivots to lock the second from prematurely moving exposing the content and prevents it from drying out. As far as I know this is the only way they are made. It's a neat mechanism the way it locks. I can see why others are making it for keepsakes.
Pottz well i guess im the last one that hasn't made one yet ? and probably never will !.. Dark_Lightning Yup, nice little box. I won't be making one either, Pottz.
C'mon guys .. you can do it! I know you can!! You can make this box for your wives! 🙂
Very nice work, especially the Butterfly Dovetail, which fits nicely in the box & lid without any gaps. PS: I tried the link to the Woodwrigh's Shop few times, kept getting a black screen with message: This video is property of PBS, and they have blocked it in your country. Don't know which country they think I'm in, but it's the good old Red White & Blue USA. Anyway, nice work on the box.
Rick, the second link worked fine, thanks. I checked both links again, they have totally different web addresses. Might be where you copied the link - your browser or YouTube. I'm guessing here on this, all this newfangled techie stuff is a foreign language to me. I like the technology of the 60s and 70s, turn a knob or push a button. 🤣
