    Default A basic Christening Box

    Greg just posted what he did with MapleMans stump and it amazed me the similarities to a job I finished only yesterday: MAPLEMAN's camphor stump

    While his was 70 hours, mine MAY have been 3

    I have to admit, not having a good way to cut mitres left this a tricky thing. Its something I'll need to learn. My tablesaw is dead-on accurate at 90° but the blade seems to be out of whack at 45°... plus my sled is very ordinary... AND I don't have an SCMS.

    Good for practice. Sent to client on the same day as finished

    I forgot to add, there is no finish, the joins are very basic and there was little if no love for fanciness. It was a quick get-it-done-asap type of job.

    I did enjoy using the Frontline clamps and the case glueup needs to be a bit.....easier!

    Gregs inner removable tray and shelf was excellent. That would have made a nice addition (if I had the time).

    Hi Woodpixel,
    Pretty much clones of one another I would say. Similar ideas, 2 different States. Great minds think.......
    Greg.
