There will be a lot of posting of projects going on soon with everyone finishing up Christmas presents. These are four pencil boxes I made for some of the girls at work. The design came from one of Doug Stowe’s books. I did not add a stop pin on the tops as I could not settle on what I liked. So these lids will slide off from either end. I enjoyed making these as it gave me some experience on finger joints and got to use my chisels to do a bit of hand work.
