    Nearing the end.

    Made some feet to keep the box off its base. Found this piece of African blackwood which is very dense and hard. Machined a rebate to hang off box.

    It would not cut nicely on tablesaw to get the lengths or mitres so had to resort to hand work. Made a stop for length consistency and a white piece of wood with 45 degree format, this was screwed to sawbench and also worked as a pull lever and jammed the wood to make cutting quite easy.

    glued in position to base.

    Front view. (I think the lid will need another button and I shall use earth magnets to keep lid in closed position)

    Good solution to the miter cutting. I will keep that in mind for the odd foot that I might need.

    Would it be a smaller button for the lid?

    Thanks for the suggestion, I had not thought of that.
