Thanks Ray but I have to say that is was not all hand tool work (far from it). Planing and thicknessing was all done with machinery as was cutting the stock to rough width and length. I’d love to do more projects with only hand tools but with a full time job, wife and three kids all competing for my time my chances of doing so are slim are best!BM - the lid was made as part of the box and then cut off meaning that the dovetails on the corners were already made and didn’t need any further thinking about. Just as well really as there’s no way such points would have registered on my radar either!
