This is my attempt at Johns box.I have never used a router before and the wife wasn't too happy that I used it in the kitchen.Amazing how far the shaving fly from that thing!
I wish I had stained the corner molding the same as the top, but to late now.

A BIG

to John for sharing the patterns on this one.

I'm proud of you son

Jerry,
You've done good. Nothing wrong with the cutting and the bevel cuts will improve. by the time you get through making 20 of them for Christmas presents, you'll be an expert mate.

You are a braver man than I am, even attempting to use a router inside house would have seen my instant demise LOL

Very nice work Jerry and John!

Very nice work Jerry and John, thanks for a beautiful idea. A router inside the house??????? Are you nuts! John is right but demise is nice compared to what my wife would do to me. The only tool that makes more dust is my surface planer and it doesn't throw chips as far.

Not anymore! (LOL) I could not believe what a mess it made.But it was really hot outside,and the damage was already done after my first pass,so I finished it up and took my tongue lashing like a man..... (yes Dear, sorry Dear....Won't happen again Dear...(While your home))...

And I hope your right John, I've just got to get used to controlling flat blades.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.I'm going on vacation next Monday,but really want to take another stab at this when I get back.

LOL, you are a brave man, indeed, Jerry! My wife doesn't even let me wash my hands in the kitchen sink (have to use the bathroom)!

The tissue box looks excellent, Jerry. Now you can blow your nose with honor and pride!

Great cutting job!

(you can tell that Aussie bloke that his pattern looks really nice, too)
