Fingerjoints the hard way

Could have sworn the Proofgrade was 1/4”. Dang it all!

Otherwise I think it turned out okay. I wanted to have a border of the lid’s underside engraved down so it would “click” into place but I never did quite figure that out. Maybe next time!

How I did it…

Knowing the size of the inside of the box, I cut a square that size and one inside it 3\16 smaller providing that clickable top to this lamp.

I had a piece where I had a tab I wanted to remove. (Unabox - #2 by bwente) I cut the outline of it out on some cardboard and without moving it put the piece in again and switched layers and cut it out. It was perfect.

I cut out the little rectangle with the “X”.

Actually, I thought you designed it that way on purpose. It looks kind of neat! Like a castle’s crenellations.
