That's what I may do. I have all the boards now. I have a micro jig which I have used on other pieces. I am going to make mine slightly different. I am going to use cedar for the bottom. I may use rope for the handles. I am also thinking instead of the false bottom putting in a sliding shelf near the top.
well I just glued and screwed some boards. they were pretty twisted. as soon as I let off the clamps it buckled! so I have to modify the design even more. I am going to add boards inside and screwed in from the inside. not ideal but it will work for me.
HI, I am am not s furniture maker but I mostly make scrollsaw art. I have made other items. I am limited on my tools. I do not have a joiner but want to make this chest? I have a tabletop style belt sander just to get the crud off pallet boards and glue up that way? any other tips?
