Very nice. Watch out the BOX BUG has bitten ya! That sure is a humdinger, too! I know what ya mean about them thin strips on teh table saw. My woodworking mags all seem to have a jig featured to cut thin strips. I suggest you look at the new magazine from Shop Notes, Table Saw: Tough Cuts Made Easy, on sale at your fav book stores. Lowes has it at 10% off. Check page 46 for a simple jig for cutting thin strips. Sure beats scary cuts using fence!

I look forward to your next boxes!

God Bless,

Good looking box – too bad you missed the deadline for entry, but all is not lost – you still have the Jack to drown your sorrows.

Great project. Too bad you didn’t make the time limit.

Great box, and what’s not to like about the concept. Jack-in-the-box… hysterical.

I like the “Jack in the Box”. The box isn´t bad either.

Yeah, Jack in the Box had me laughing that I almost forgot to look at the pictures. A very spiffy looking box and quite practical as well.

Count me into the “loved Jack in the Box title” camp! That’s great!!! ;)

Nice box too :)

This is a very nice box. But this is a slippery slope. Once you realize the potential and beauty of boxes they become addictive. As I said in an earlier post perseverance here is one of the main elements of the contest. You were able to complete your project- a milestone in itself. Cajunpen’s signature speaks addresses this well.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Great start in making boxes.The next one will be easier,you can splurge on a wider board.Well done!

Jack in the Box – LOL. The box sort of has a western\cowboy look to it. Neat.
