Band saw boxes - justdraftn - 03-26-2019 Greetings! from Colorado. Stumbled onto this site looking for band saw box ideas. Current fascination is finding band saw boxes. Running a Laguna 14Twelve. Got'a love those ceramic guides. Here is some of my work. Thoughts/comments..... RE: Band saw boxes - hbmcc - 03-26-2019 Well, greetings! And, thanks for the fun submission! I have always enjoyed boxes done your way. Do you design the box, or 'just draft' (start cuttin')? Bring more on. Don't be shy..... RE: Band saw boxes - Wild Turkey - 03-26-2019 Very Nice!

Thanks! justdraftn is related to my cycling. It's where I like to be....just draft'n. Box building is sort of like the see food diet. ....you know....I see food and eat it. I see things in wood and extract them. I love the challenge of seeing pictures of things and figuring out how to make them. Once I see it in my head, I can usually bring it out of the wood. ....and yes....sometimes I just start cutt'n and see what happens. Other boxes This kitty box is spalted maple veneer and a piece of 200yr oak beam. I love working w/"flawed" wood. It is the flaws that become the character of the box. ….got’a have the hidden drawer. Another kitty box conjured out of a totally gnarled piece of Chinese elm. RE: Band saw boxes - justdraftn - 03-26-2019 (03-26-2019, 10:37 AM)Wild Turkey Wrote: Very Nice!Happy to share my ideas. What wood you like to know? RE: Band saw boxes - justdraftn - 03-26-2019 (03-26-2019, 12:34 PM)®smpr_fi_mac® Wrote: I love making bandsaw boxes, too. A fun piece. As you well know, it’s all in the cutting/glue back steps. The tambour box was born from the faux roll top box. Curious and interesting. There are a couple of videos out there showing how it is done. I watched them a half Dozen times and started cutting. This is 2x8 doug fir framing material. Good stuff to Learn on….and when cut w/a band saw just has some wild grain. ..but not the real thing. So, create the real thing. True tambour roll top. ….and just because I can, a hidden compartment. I have more pics at home if you are interested. I have new ideas for expanding on this technique. ...to be continued. RE: Band saw boxes - justdraftn - 03-26-2019 (03-26-2019, 11:41 AM)shoottmx Wrote: Welcome!! Your work is just too friggin' cool!
