Wooden Hinged Box from scraps
comments (2) February 21st, 2010 in Reader's Gallery
This is my first attempt at making wood hinges. I saw some great ideas on this site and decided to give it a try. The cutting tool in the box is called a K-Lux knife. Its a tool used to score plexiglas and lexan prior to snapping on the scored line. I had stored this tool in the bottom of my toolbox for nearly 30 years and decided to give it a better home.
The following types of wood were used: western red cedar, eastern white pine, southern yellow pine, cherry, and beech.
Design or Plan used: My own design
