OK...Nothing great about this but thought I would share it any way. This is the first box I ever did. I still need to sand it and put some type of coating on it but all in all I don't think it is to bad for a newbie.

What is the best way to sand it on the inside so it is more even? Probably should have thought of that before I put it together...lol!

Looks great, nick work.  :)  You might try looking for some spindle type sanders that fit in your drill press.

It came out nice, I would try a spindle sander, just keep checking while sanding, so you don't take too much off and make your lid keeper too loose.
