A few entries ago I posted this bandsaw box
The unique method to construct it was to cut the shape in half and then joined it back together with a wood strip. This mad it very easy to cut the drawers out without cuts going here and there across the front. Easy to adapt to different shapes and number of drawers. I started out to make a four leaf clover box for a birthday gift and soon discovered it would not work, as the leaves join in one spot. Came up with this idea to also make multiple parts that would be easy to sand and cut out the drawersStarted out with a sketch on a block of wood, then the two halves where separated by cutting on the vertical line.
The next step was to cut the horizontal line on each half.
Then cut each drawer out.
Drawers are then completed the same way as a traditional bandsaw box, eventually everything is sanded, the four petals are glued back together and it can be mounted on a base. These make great gifts. More romantic than a bowl. Add some jewelry and you will really add some points.I made two YOUTUBE videos to show you the comp;let ;process with all the instruction and ins and outs. It is 30 minutes long, but you may be interested in the introduction video, Its 7 minutes long but also shows several more bandsaw boxes that I made from driftwood a few years backMETHOD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNV-EwvljpwINTRODUCTION https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m5EI1Fov14hanks for looking, comments much appreciated.
