Notebook Box
Custom request from Etsy. Notebook box from Cherry for storing notebooks/journals and doubling as a support for a writing surface. Miters are splined with cherry as well – so much easier to keep the miters aligned during glue up not to mention the added strength

Michael,
The box looks wonderful. I love the grain pattern. The splined miters are a great way of keeping the miters aligned. I’ve done them on very large mitered items (corners of cabinets and pulpit) but always forget on boxes and then suffer the consequences of the slipping and sliding of the miters. Thanks for the reminder!
