Thread: That's not right!

I sometimes make boxes without right angles too, but for a different reason .

Yours look great and now I know of something to try with pieces that don't fit in future .

Very unique Alex, well thought out. Nice clean joints, that woulda tested your clamping skills, they look great.

Thanks Paul, I clamped them using masking tape and strips of rubber cut from an old inner tube. Wrap the strip around a few times, you don't have to stretch it much as the tension builds up.

Good thinking Alex. A while back I bought a bag of very large rubber bands probably about 2 foot in circumference,......and also my Postie who has heaps of largish rubber bands gives me a handfull. They can be soo handy in clamping up all sorts of shapes.

Nice work, it nice to see some not normal work.
Well done

Fantastic craftmanship as always Alex It would do my head in trying to work out the angles and getting it to all fit together.

Is that a right-angle I spy between the lid and handle

Thanks. TTIT, yes, the handles are perpendicular to the lid...or at least, they're meant to be.

Hi Alex,
Great to see you still at it.
I'm sure there is still a challenge you have in your head, for that box that can't be produced..... so what is it and what timbers will you use?
Thanks as always for sharing.

Thanks Greg, There are plenty of challenges still there - just have to get them from my head to solid form.
