Hey guys! Well school ended yesterday and man was I bored! So I decided I was going to make something. Earlier this year in shop a kid made a beautiful cherry jewlery box with 2 levels. It was beautiful. However I think he could have taken it alot further and made it breathtaking. So I'm going to. Here's the dimensions. It will be 11" wide by 6" high. The first level will be 4" deep and the second level will be 3" deep now for the fun part. I'm going to highlight the whole box with walnut trim. And underneath the step will be hollow. Using a system of locks and slides I'm going to make a secrete compartment for under the steps. I really think it will be cool. One thought is. Don't glue the back in. Run the dado up to the top but underneath lock it in with wood so it's solid then lock that wood in. Then she will be Abel to unlock the bottom. And take it off. She will then be Abel to slide the top of the step off opening the secrete compartment. Another one. Is to make a hinge type system so the back will
Lay back. Have a piece of wood still hiding the compartment that with a lock will be Abel to slide out of the dado opening the compartment. Let me know what you think. I'm sorry if this is confusing. Just follow the thread and it will all make sense! If you have any ideas let me know! Thanks!
