Ah I see. Well I'm totally untrained in woodwork so I need all the help I can get! Hense why I'm here. I'm learning a lot from YouTube to be honest. Didn't know how to sharpen a chisel or use a hand plane so it's been a little university for me in my shed. Just trying to learn to dovetail...

Not a Paul fan?

Thank you I am a total novice at a lot of things so that's good to hear. I think I need to cut a piece of wood for the angle or does it matter that it's bang on 30°? I have an angle finder wheel thing for the hand plane blade but it's too big for the chisels. Is it better to learn to do it by...

That looks alright. Could probably do some long cuts on the table saw and chisel out the rest. Seems easy enough. I will get to it and let you guys know how it goes :) thanks.

I thought that about the lip using the table saw. Problem is it'll stretch the whole length of the board and I think that'll look daft. I only wanted a lip on the middle really. I'm leaning towards just doing a couple Champers all around but that also might mess up the look of the mitred...

Also just realised I prefer the lid the other way around like this... That looks better right?

Hello everyone! Just joined and glad to be here. I've started building a little jewelry type box just to practice my skills I've been teaching myself. I've only really done site joinery as a labourer but I'm much more interested in cabinet/furniture building. So! Here she is so far and I've...

Such a shame these photos are not here anymore I would love to see it!

Ahhh. Thank you!

I put a partially sanded piece next to an un-sanded piece. It was reclaimed from an old bathroom cabinet. Any ideas?
