box without glue, laser cut
Hi Guys!
I'm fairly new to the woodworking scene, I am working with laser engraving-cutting machine and want make box for engraved whine glass. I have picture of wine box but I need more detail or plans. Picture is http://www.bisa.hr/images/wine box.jpg. I can see that box is cut up with laser machine in plywood but I can not found plans or detail picture for that box.
Any help?

Hi bibi,
Buy a bottle of plonk drink that, measure the bottle, buy another bottle of plonk drink that, measure the bottle , should give you a headache but will give you an idea of the measurements.

That looks simple enough. If I were you, I would get out a ruler, a razor knife, some stiff cardboard, draw it out, cut it out, and see how it works. It looks like there are no nails or even glue needed. The front and back seem to slide down onto hooked tabs coming off of the sides.
Once you get it figured out with your cardboard template, programing your laser engraver to cut it out of very thin wood or plywood should be simple.
Good luck.
Post a pic of it when you are done.“When we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for present delight nor for present use alone. Let it be such work as our descendants will thank us for; and let us think...that a time is to come when those (heirlooms) will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say, as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, ‘See! This our father did for us.’ “ --John Ruskin. Audels Carpenters and Builders Guide, 1923 Theo Audel & CO. New York.

That idea seems only one way. I hope that someone have plans for box like that but....
What is with bottom ?!The front and back seem to slide down onto hooked tabs coming off of the sides.

Hmmm.. This does not seem to be the way it is from the pictures, but I'd lock tabs from the bottom into the side panels that have the hooked tabs. Have tabs from the bottom slip through small holes on side panels.

The carrying rope is attached to the sides with the tabs which are hooked upward so that when the box is carried or placed on a table nothing falls off.
I wish I had taken the time to learn sketch-up I'm sure I could draw it fairly easily. Just look at the pics you have and give it a go.
p.s. since the wood for the box is to be fairly thin and those tabs will be carrying the full weight of your wine and the box as it swings around on that rope, I'd go with a plywood not solid wood which is likely to split along the grain of such a thin piece
Let me know how it works out.“When we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for present delight nor for present use alone.
