I am working on both tutorials for a couple of reasons, to correct many areas that were unclear and to add in all the fixes I made in the comments sections. Some of the pictures I used were no longer showing up due to a glitch on the website I had them stored at and the tutorial made little sense without them. So I decided the text needed redoing also. I am very busy right now, but hope to get around to it soon.
Stay tuned.
Andy

That’s a great tutorial, I will have to read it properly later when I have more time.
You make it look so easy tho, I suppose it is only hard until you try it! I will def give that one a go sometime. Thx

Thanks Andy for the tutorial, I realy love your work. Iloved to make boxes espcially small ones. I am going over my sisters house for christmas and we exchange gifts. I want to make one of those boxes for her. I have plenty of scrap pieces lying around 1/2 inch thick. So I am going to start on it this weekend.

Thanks again

Thanks for taking the time to post this. I can see I will be busy with this as soon as I clean up the 1 years worth of freeze dried food for 4 people that is taking up space in my shop.
