Making Heirloom Boxes
Boxes are some of the most popular woodworking projects around, and professional box maker Lloyd offers projects that are beautiful as well as useful; many use the wood's natural edges or unusual grain as a design feature. The boxes' interiors are very functional, with compartments for money, jewelry, or stationery. An especially appealing design feature is the use of solid wooden hinges, which are both functional and attractive. This title was originally published in Britain, which poses no problem, as measurement conversions are provided. However, the use of the term belt linisher for belt sander will sound somewhat wacky to most American readers. Filled with numerous attractive designs, this title should be part of any woodworking collection.Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.
