You learn more about the jigs I used as well as the flocking and finishing techniques in the links below. And the solid brass hinges compliments the exotic woods and the the design. All of the joinery is mitered corners that are easily done on the tablesaw and reinforced with splines. The top tray slides effortlessly across the bottom tray and everything lifts out to reveal the hidden compartment. I’m really happy with the way this box came out.

I chose to get a little fancy and paid $73.58 for the wood used in this project without any leftovers. The price of wood can be very dynamic depending on the choice of woods and your location. The tri-blend finish I recommend on exotic woods takes 4 days but each day only requires a couple minutes of work with a full day to dry between coats. If you choose to use a lacquer finish you could also get multiple coats done on the second day as it will dry fast. On day 2 the splines, chamfers and hinges can be added. On day 1 all the pieces can be cut and glued together. For this box I wanted to use special exotic woods so I went to Kencraft, my local hardwood dealer and picked out some Bocote for the sides, Zebrawood for the top and bottom and ebony for the splines.Īlthough I can’t give you an exact amount of hours it took to make this I can tell you that if well planned this could easily be made in two days.
