In this 2-part video, I am building a scrap-wood gift box. The lid fits nicely because of a simple router technique.

  • Hi stevie boy ,the inlay ? it looked like you routered at the edge but the inlay was not at the edge? could you show on close up greater detail how you did this ,please master,

    Graeme. your Scottish friend

  • @bogsdolics Hey Graeme, Yeah I should have showed that better. It's really simple: I just rabbeted the top panel all the way around...not the box lid itself. Then I glued the panel in, then I just set the inlay strips into the groove.

  • @stevinmarin ahh I see , simple now I know , I made your nail in a piece of wood trick , its great , going to try more of you stuff when I get time ,its very sunny here today ! in Scotland !

    thanks for all your video thingamy's.

    Graeme

  • @bogsdolics Cool. Say hey to the Ramsay Clan.

  • Why chamfer the lid & the box at the end, YOU'VE 'EFFING RUINED IT !!!!

  • @nickoakley69 Haha! Well, I liked the separation it gave. You certainly don't have to. Plus, a chamfer hides mistakes. ;-)

  • hi steve can you tell me how much your bandsaw cast. thanks jack

  • im making this in wood shop at school and today i removed the lid and saw dust got between the fence and the box and i didnt know and it mad a little slit where the lid meets the bottom but i figured out how o fill it in

  • Very nice. Thanks for showing me how to put some unused router bits and scrap wood to good use. BTW, what did you do on the bottom of the box? Do you see plywood when you turn it over? Thanks again...

  • @stevinmarin Fair enough, your prerogative I suppose, still quite impressive though.
