Here three out of six small cedar chests I made for Christmas presents. They are going to my mother, my sisters, and my four children and their spouses. The chest is made from red oak. I lined each chest with aormatic cedar. Inside each chest is a tray which rests in the top third of the chest. The chest rests on ogee bracket feet. The handles are aged bronze. The hinges and chain are brass.

They turned out great. What method did you use to make the bracket feet ? I really want to start using them on some of the boxes I make in the future.

To rtbrmb: I used this link for the pattern to make my bracket ogee feet: http://www.woodsmith.com/files/issues/139/bracket-foot-pattern.pdf
And this is the link for instructions for how to make the feet themselves:
