re: Compatible Woods in Small Boxes

Mike as per our discussion over the phone, the 1/4" is a great find but in my opinion the 1/4" is way to thin for box side walls I suggest you design your box so that the Ganadillo can be laminated to the outside giving it the illusion the box is made from the Ganadillo thus allowing for thicker walls, the lid you have a few options 1. Using contrast wood that lays over the entire box gluing and clamping. 2. Cutting 1/4" dados 1/4" down from the top edge and using your Ganadillo making it a floating panel lid. 3. Using your table saw blade and cutting 1/8 × 1/4" deep dados also 1/8" from the top of the side walls and than using a 5/8" thick piece of contrast wood also cutting the same 1/8″ × 1/4" deep dados so that he fits inside of the side wall dadoes, Note the last option is more complex.

Sorry I don’t have pictures or projects going right now to show you but my best advise is that you might try youtube and see if you can find something in the lines that I am talking about.
