Is it a Jewelry Box? or a Valet? | How I BUILT this Amazing Box | 2020/03

My first woodworking project of the new year is a black walnut Valet with maple accents. This valet is a gift from a friend of mine for his fiancé, who is being commissioned in the United States Navy.
While this was a relatively small project, it did come with its challenges. I followed a set of plans from the Woodworking Journal and modified them to add an extra drawer. They were extremely easy to follow and made the build very easy. I also watched a couple of videos on UA-cam from Jay Bates who made similar boxes, His techniques were extremely helpful as well.
The box turned out really well, and for the record, she loved it!

Cool project. I didn't think the trick with the super glue on the drawer slides would work. Learned something new!

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Neither did I...

[@MultiGamingUniverse]

Nice. My wife would love something like that.

Let me know.. $$

Nice video Scott. When i make my boxes and cut the lids off, i cut the front and back first to leave more structure to the box before adding wedges to cut the sides off .

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Yeah.. I learned that after the fact. But I got lucky on this one and had a clean cut all the way around.
