Title: Checkbook Box
Post by: EIEIO on April 05, 2013, 11:19:21 am
A nephew saw the small playing card box and thought it would make a good box for his checkbook. This is cut from a pine 2x6 with 1/8" BB top and bottom. Inside dimension is 4"x7", outside is 5"x8". Walls are 1/4" thick.

Mahendra - It's a pleasure to send the CheckBox after all the great patterns you've provided. This is not as detailed as Steve's documents, so please ask if anything is unclear.

Very nice ,beautiful contrast,You also captured a excellent illistration of edge grain curvitures and everone can see how that effects wood selection ,when laying out pieces for projects ,reguarding effects on blade cutting and natural twisting caused by grain direction, when glueing up to make up wider boards .best illistration I have seen ,cut that thin at both ends should have little effect ,nice job!!
