Blanket Box Project

I made a start on the blanket box today. I spent the morning cutting all the pieces to length and running the grooves for the panels and then cutting the tenons. I then cut panels from plywood and then took a break to go swimming with Ally.

After swimming I cleaned up all the joints and glued the four sides together.

Tomorrow I'll cut the base panel and assemble the box.

I think I'll make the top from a piece of laminated furniture board and then it should be nearly done. I'll post a picture of the finished project in a couple of days.
