My 1st band saw box

[marmoh]

Gave this a shot this morning.  The idea intrigues me so had to do it.  Didn't spend too much time with it as this will only hold my first million $$$.  I'll do better with the next one as it will hold my next million $$$ 
I see from the picture that I forgot to seal the inside of the drawer ... may just line it with felt.

Looks good to me.. Maybe one day I'll try it.. (laughing to self) .. You did a great job.... Sheila

It's a nice looking box Marion. It needs to be a lot bigger if it is going to hold your first million though!

good job Marion thanks for posting

Great job Marion, it may not hold a million but it sure as heck looks like one...

Great job and congratulations on your first bandsaw box. Can't wait to try one myself.

Good job, and a nice piece of cedar, if the rest is as good you made out like a bandit!

The box is very nice.
A few days ago I saw the video of how to do it on the blog of mere mortals, but works with other saws.
I wonder if you did with scroll saw or jigsaw for a different type of machine?
thanks in advance for your response

Good job.  Looks good.  I love making bandsaw boxes.  Instead of felt, look into flocking.  It's easy and inexpensive and a good way to finish off the inside of boxes with a nice appearance.

Will check into the flocking.  Frank I am thinking of trying one on the scroll saw, just because...don't know if it will work as it will be small.  My band saw will only allow me a 3 1/2 clearance so will be limited on the size of the boxes I make ( unless I can get that million $$$ !!!! )  Don't know if it was working with the cedar or if it is just seasonal allergy but I have been suffering after working with the cedar yesterday.  I will have to mask from now on and make sure I have plenty of ventilation before I use it again.  Just trying different things to pass the time.

Hey Marion,  I have modified several bandsaw boxes to cut on the scrollsaw.  You just have to cut it in layers.  Takes a bit more sanding though.

Julie tell us how you did it, I've been thinking about that ever since the subject came up.
Maybe start a new thread with it in tips.

Looks great, nice work

Marion, that looks waaay better than my first bandsaw box.  No amount of sanding in the world was going to save that disaster!
