The lid is on the right and on the left is the side view.
Lid and box.
Box with my hand holding the lid on.
A narrower box like the wider one above.
With the lid on
I call this a box but it more like a deep tray.
Bottom of the tray/box.
These boxes take a little time but to make them you take the wood that you want the glue and press them together. I let it set for at least 24 hours. Right now, I am using Titebond III glue. It seems to work very well and is well reviewed.
After it is set, I slice it with the table saw. I have found it is best not to make the thickness more than the height of the blade. Two cuts just does not work for me since my table saw is not the greatest. I make do nicely though. Sometimes I miter the corners and other times, I do not. On the last box I took some dark walnut and made nice little details for the corners. They are covered with a polyurethane.
