Coffee Filter Box
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Coffee Filter BoxOK, cheesy, but what the hay. I wanted to make a box to hold the filters for my little coffee maker using my new saw cabinet setup, instead of leaving them on the counter in the plastic bag. Red oak cut in a large box joint “ala Greene and Greene”. The bottom of the box is a piece of 1/8” Baltic Birch plywood. Finished with Minwax “Golden Oak” stain and Minwax water based spar varnish. I WAS going to use amber shellac spray, but it doesn't appear to be available here in my town. I finished it before assembling it, and had to put it together with clamps due to there being an interference fit with the parts. I guess that's an Incra precision issue, which I'll keep in mind for next time. The edges are just chamfered, as I was trying for a pretty rustic look, so what appears to be gaps where the pieces join are just chamfers. It's tight as a drum at the joints. The handle for the lid is a simple drawer pull from LOWES.
