Puzzle Box

Puzzle Box


This is my first attempt at a puzzle box, made from cherry and walnut. I made it for a family friends 65th birthday, complete with a small ding on the side of the lid, thanks to my damn butter fingers once it was all complete! Its tiny and probably never noticed but I’ll always see it! ha


I got the plans from an article by George Walker on PW, called Woodworking Ideas. It comes with step by step, great plans for a first box.


Thanks for looking,


Paul
