Adam Savage's One Day Builds: How To Build a Box!

hey it's Adam from tested in my cave with another one day build what I've been noticing is that each time I post some of the more repeatable craft projects that I do here in the cave like the fire Lantern and specifically the poker table that they've been going wildfire you guys really like those videos and I've I've in the past I've like made the joke that tested is not a how-to channel it's more of what happened channel so you get to watch me screw up in real time and and talk about it and we are still that kind of channel but I also watching the responses to these build videos that people are building their own versions of I realize I have something to contribute there too one of the things I build a lot in this shop is boxes you know that whenever I find an object I love I make a box to celebrate that thing in fact a box for my Blade Runner Blaster is the very first of all the one day builds so today I'm gonna build a simple box for this beautiful pair of Apollo gloves made by Ryan Nagata and I'm gonna just walk you through the rudiments of how I make a simple sturdy lovely box now I like building boxes so much I often go online and buy box hardware parts just to make sure I've got what I need when the time comes and so many box builds for me begin with a examination of what I've got in front of me so I'm about to build a box for these NASA gloves which means I can throw out all these flowery corners and stuff like that I think much more something along the lines of these corners might work for such a thing so I'm gonna pull out eight of those I'm gonna need a handle on top of the box I don't it's pretty straightforward hardware store handle but I don't love it I think I'm gonna go with one of these which I had a while back and I'm still saving I'm gonna need some kind of closure for the box and on that front I have out as well ah these guys here these guys might be perfect so I've got one too that's alright I have some ideas about the shape of this box so let me do three four one two three four one two three four yeah so this is sort of the preliminary shopping I might not end up using all these parts but I might you will see see what else I've got here I've got these guys which are a little more substantial but that you really would NASA be using these I don't think so look at these guys oh these are prettier these are much nicer yeah these feel more like a kind of a piece of NASA hardware to me oh I've true sizes look at this how well-prepared I am okay one two three four when you use the small sizes one two three four yep okay I see now I've got two large with locks on them and four small one two three so let's do that I've got two large in front and two small in the back cuz I like those better than these now the question is how big should this box be when I am drawing out how big a box should be I have learned the hard way to draw its interior I can't tell you how many times I've measured a thing that I'm gonna build a box for and then I build a box to the measurements of that and what I've done is made a half-inch thick wooden box that's too small on the inside to hold the thing I want yeah I've made that mistake so I think this one is pretty straightforward I think it's footprint is probably 14 inches yeah let's say 14 by my 8 8 by 14 okay and then how high how high the interior 12 is it gonna be wider than it is tall it's gonna be 14 yeah it's gotta be 40 well it could be 13 actually 13 is better and 13 tall actually when I go 15 talks I have I have the rudiments of my box the shape worked out let's cut some plywood that's some nice quarter inch ply and like that let's see I've got a bunch of these smaller cuts of quarter inch plots would be great to use yours this is really nice stuff one two three four five this is six ply beautiful finished quarter inch it's really robust cuts well oh it's just glorious to work with yes look at that I've got four beautiful pieces actually that might be the end of my good quarter inch ply alright so I got to make a note to get some more oh okay this is some nice eighth inch three ply birch okay I can use that for part of this I am NOT gonna use any of this luan here's a sampling of the different kinds of plywood I have like this is some regular three ply kind of moderately it's not quite crap but it's not excellent I have beautiful six ply that stuff I love I've got some super three ply I think this is called luan so this is like a central layer covered by two veneers it's fine for sets theater sets it's actually what most theater sets are built out of I mean it's just a super common material not very good structurally and when it starts to go oh it goes so I think this is enough here now I know I said that I was measuring the inside but I see that I have enough slop so I'm gonna build the box to these actual dimensions eight inches by 13 inches by 15 inches in fact just the one dimension that I'm a little nervous about is the 8 inch so I'm gonna do it eight and a half by 13 by 15 there are six sides to this box these are three of them and these are indicative of the other three since the box is symmetrical this one two and three side one and two and three have mates on their opposite sides that they are equivalent to so I need to come up with three sets of measurement for these pieces because it's not just that all of the pieces are it's not that piece one is simply 13 by 15 and piece 2 is 8 by 15 if I want these to be my dimensions then I need to actually accommodate for the thickness of the material so now I make a cut list and the first cut the first decision to make with a cut list is one of these pieces is going to be a full piece and the others will be bolted to it so what's the full piece look there are plenty of other ways of making boxes you can you can do 45-degree cuts and everything is cut to those extents I tend not to go for that level of precision here in the shop because I'm usually covering and/or painting the boxes so I'm just going with a you know edge gluing with some nails you'll see this later but here comes the cut list I think piece 1 here is going to be the full piece so I need 2 pieces cut at 13 inches by 15 inches then this piece is going to be 15 tall so I need 2 pieces at now I said I wanted the ultimate dimensions to be 8 a half since I'm using quarter-inch material this piece is actually going to be 8 inches by 15 inches so that leaves the cut sizes for piece number 3 and its mate on the bottom now I have to accommodate for the thickness of material which means I need to remove one quarter inch and two quarter inches so instead of well let's just say that the actual box 2 mentions as eight-and-a-half inches since I'm using quarter-inch material I remove a quarter inch and a quarter inch that removes a half inch which means the first dimension for piece three oh so one two three the first dimension for piece three is eight inches now on this side 13 it'd be 13 minus 1/2 so it'd be 12 and 1/2 inches there we go that's my cut list to it 13 by 15 2 at 8 by 15 2 at 8 by 12 and a half I'll tell you one more secret I uh actually let me just double check it's really important when you're doing cut lists like this not to trust what they stated thickness of the plywood is you gotta measure it just know that the dimensions of wood are not the dimensions that the wood is called don't measure a 2x4 oh wait yeah it's not 2 by 4 inches is it don't get me wrong I've seen a 2x4 in the distant past it's pretty cool so this is wow that is actually only 10,000 citizens of an inch under a quarter an inch it's 0.24 inches it's literally the equivalent of two and a half sheets of paper so I'm just gonna go with the measurement of quarter inch but measure first 14 inches now 8 by 15 since I cut my long pieces at 15 this is still 15 white here and I know that this is more than 8 so I already have one cut done for these 2 pieces I just need to set my fence to 8 inches now let me tell you about using a table saw the blade super-dangerous and every time I use the table saw I'm terrified of it I'm expecting somebody to walk in here with a bucket full of grease and marbles and spill it at my feet so I start to rot and fall on the table saw I consider this a healthy amount of respect for the table saw alright so here we go last piece is two times three eight by twelve and a half two putts at eight two cuts at twelve point not gonna work that will now on a table saw in general I probably should've done the 12 and a half cut first because you don't want to fit something into the table saw that's wider than it is long certainly possible to make that cut it's not great table saw practice so I'm not gonna do that I'm gonna pull out my fence which I know well clear and if I do that then the fence holds onto the piece for me I just have to raise it so the blade comes up there we go okay here comes my 12 and a half every time I'm making a cut I'm checking the corners of the piece that will be the final piece and making sure that they're okay on this piece I got this little Mickey ding here I don't want that to be part of my box so I make sure it's on the end cut every time I put a piece in the table saw I'm double checking to make sure it's going to be nice once it's done being cut now there you have yep six pieces of wood all cut to size now it's time to glue them bad mm-hmm all right I'm gonna do my box assembly on the table saw specifically because it's a beautiful flat surface but let me show you what I'm gonna use to put this box together I'm gonna use some tight bond wood glue I very much love this stuff and in my opinion wood glue might be the best of all glues I'll explain there are glues that are faster there are glues that give me surfaces I like to work with better but almost all glues are an exercise in some compromise and often disappointment that is my personal experience and for a glue to call itself wood glue and then to glue wood so well that the glued part is the strongest part of the wood that is absolutely delivering on the promise it says wood glue man it glues wood like nobody's freakin business it's basically a PVA but and there are many different brands of this everybody has their favorite I like the type on right now but I'm not super super persnickety about the kind of wood glue I use they all have worked for me the second thing I'm going to use to put these together is this 22 gauge nailer 22 gauge is the size of the wire that makes these staples and holy hell are they freaking tiny it is so lovely look at how small those are look at how okay here let me get one out that is a 22-gauge nail wait till you see the mark that it leaves when you use it which is to say you won't okay and the last thing is some acid brushes because if you're going to be gluing wood to wood it's not just enough to lay a bead of glue down and hope that it squeezes out you want to cover it and make sure it's got a hundred percent coverage on that joint just make your life a lot easier later on woodworking is one of those things that an ounce of planning in the beginning saves you a pound of headaches on the other end repeatedly repeatedly repeatedly in order to come up with my Cutlass I chose the full pieces that would be the unbroken sides first and that's these two pieces and they will be sandwiching two sides that go on the inside and two top and a bottom that go on the inside so I'm going to assemble this ring of plywood first and then put this on the outside I have found that to be just the best way of thinking through the problem great practice for woodworking is to soften the edges of your freshly cut plywood it just makes for a cleaner project later on and I have a kind of a fast shop hack for doing that this you might recognize is my sword grinding Linna sure AKA belt sander and i have on it a bit of scotch brite 3m scotch brite material this is fabulous for doing finished polishing on metals it also is spectacular for taking just a tiny bit off of wooden corners watch this take a look it's just the tiniest bit but honestly since I started doing it my woodworking has become a lot cleaner wait one more thing you should know that they make these scotch-brite belts for many many different kinds of belt Sanders so if you have a belt sander in the shop go looking to see if they make one for it because I've also got one for these these 24 inch and they're on the back here somewhere they're just spectacular finishing belts in general you don't want to necessarily use the longest nails for your project I like these which are just about five eighths of an inch long four quarter inch ply I find it's pretty versatile so I'll load these in there's usually an arrow on them which shows you can see the arrow that shows the direction that they get stapled in and just for testing I'm just gonna see if it's actually going through yeah there you go and note that's actually one of the dangers with a pin nailer like this is it can actually travel all the way through the wood and across the shop so in the same way that you don't point any gun at anything you don't want to destroy you don't point a pin gun at anyone in the vicinity it's bad practice so you want to be super careful and I'm actually going to talk about a couple more ways to be super careful with a pin nailer because they can drink a lotta havoc on your fingers and thus your work you're the business end of your ability to work listen there's a reason every youtuber carpenter does this and make sure they have full coverage it just makes much better world let's see here I'm not worrying about how square it is right now because it doesn't need to be I'll square it up later when I put the pieces on it and so here goes and I'll do a second one and a third one turn it over at the top now I want to point out something that I'm doing here but I'm about to put in this nail right here I'm like holding the pieces in orientation and then when you notice me doing was just before I put in the nail I raised all my fingers this is because wood is a often fairly homogenous material but with all sorts of things going on inside and anyone who uses a pin nailer can tell you that the pins can go in and come out at all sorts of weird angles you want to keep your fingers clear not just of one pin nails width from the gun actually more like two or three pin nail woods I've had friends who fired a pin into a piece of wood fired a second pin into the first pin and drove the first pin out through the wood and out through their damn finger yeah these things are really problematic from an injury standpoint so I'm gonna keep on doing this and you'll watch I set up get my hands in position and then before I pull the trigger I bring everything up so there's no chance that the nail can get to my tender flesh now look I totally agree with you if you're a bit lazy that like that's probably plenty in terms of the glue coverage but no listen take the time you'll be happier later the things you build will last longer I swear it might not seem like a big change but it's also a little bit of like the consciousness you have around it that you're taking care of every single join all right so again I do the top same way I did before bring it up clearing right it's like I'm using the defibrillator clear all right I've got it set I'm putting in the same hole clear okay and each time I'm doing this I'm looking down on the pin nailer to make sure it's perfectly parallel and square to the work that means I don't get any blow through inside this is a common problem with pin nails is that sometimes they'll come up on the inside if you're not perfectly aligned and frankly when you're working with material thinner than a quarter-inch it becomes you just have to be really really on your game again also you want to inspect every face you're going to glue to make sure you've removed any debris even a little bit of sawdust can actually prevent stuff from sit and tight so on something like this now I've got a bunch of orientations going on I'm gonna just start and do sort of some cornering work - another one here again we're moving all fingers before the staple before this pin goes in here comes the next one getting it all in place now I'm actually using the pin gun to kind of clamp for me here great and then the last one so often when I'm pinning something together I'll put in the mission-critical pins and then fill it in with the other ones later so here we go I know not the same amount of pins on each side that's just my laziness sloppiness as a carpenter so InTouch each take a look a visual inspection of the inside shows no blow throughs which is nice and actually frankly uncommon I'm gonna test fit this side here and it's lovely it's lovely in the width again this piece isn't fully square yet because it still has some movability but that's fine I don't need it to be I'm gonna make it square with this puppy one thing sometimes to keep an eye on these acid brushes can tend to lose some of their some of their bristles just keep an eye and make sure there aren't any there's one in your way here we go and again I'm going to do this the same way I did those other ones which is to do the corners first to make sure I'm super lined up with everything yeah there we go now I'm using really good plywood so it's not wandering very much but if I would can tend to wander so for instance this is flush here but a little proud here this is why the next set of pins you put in should be in the middle sometimes you can have plywood that's really wandering again you can kind of creep on it and just sort of pop up and stitch it into submission this one looks great this one seems just fine there we go oh okay that one's a little bit proud good okay so so there you have it that is one whole side done and if I look on the inside I found a bristle of my acid brush but no pins blowing through very happy let's do the last side just the same way I talked in a precent recent video about using my pinky to guide a pencil line I'm actually using my pinky the pad of my pinky to guide the glue line all the way down there we go and some glue will squish out that's totally fine that's all deela bellator and it's getting you out of there now again even here it's wrecked just a little bit off of square and that can happen which is why you want to do the corners first if I started stitching this up and I was a little bit off I'm not gonna learn that it corners out of phase until I get to that corner don't assume you can stitch it right perfectly into the corner now I bet there's a question forming in your mind what are you wondering well if I had to if I was watching this video I'd be saying wait a minute Adam if you're making a box to hold your gloves presumably one would need to get into that box and I've just made a perfectly sealed thing how am I gonna get my gloves in there well this is one of my personal little secret things that I do here in the shop when I'm gonna make a box with a lid I make the box first and then I cut it apart that way all the pieces that I've used match and married to each other just perfectly so now what I want to do is I want to figure out where I'm gonna make the cut and then I want to make sure I've put a couple staples on either side of that cut to give it a little bit more mechanical support oh I'm so sorry can we talk about this pin nailer for a second come on over here look at how tiny these holes are honestly on some materials you can't even see it and once you give it a coat of paint it's gone entirely 22 gauge pins are fabulously invisible really it changed my life I didn't know that you could get pins that small just until a couple years ago and it's seriously altered all of my carpentry before that I was using a bigger pin gun which is fine and you can carefully set it and all that's really great but 22 gauge man it's the it's the business so where do I want to cut this now I had this idea about this box that I don't want it to be a lid like I'm often making my boxes because I want to celebrate the object that's going in them which means I want it to be a kind of a display and so on that front then I think what I'm going to do here is I'm going to cut it like here so that this part has a handle on it and this lifts off so you'd have say a closure here and here and a closure on the other stuff two closures on the other side and you would undo those and pull off the top of this box and then you've got the two gloves standing there being displayed for all the worlds like the beautiful pieces of art that they are yeah so now the question is where does that dividing line happen so let's bring a glove over and take a look now the gloves are gonna sit in here like this oh that's lovely I'm gonna sit about like that that high off and I don't want a lot of material here it's kind of like that isn't it yeah I think it's like that so how far is that is oh let's say two inches I like round numbers do you want to know why round numbers are really awesome to build with when I machined the front couplers of the Apollo space suits what I found was every I I had a wax casting of an original coupler to measure off of and what I found was every measurement of that piece was a whole number I mean within the English within the you know imperial measurement system which is a dog's breakfast to be sure however it's like it was one in three-quarter inches in diameter not one point seven to one seven it's like a round number 1.75 and every time you were measuring the width of a Dulli or the distance between two things it was a round number of degrees and it was around it was like 1/8 of an inch 1/4 of an inch and what that does is it is a real tip of the hat to the people coming behind you what you're saying is I used all whole numbers so you don't have to guess to the ten thousandth decimal point of what measurement I was using when I made this part you can see that it is exactly two inches and thus all you need to do is measure exactly two inches not two point oh seven three two one yeah and that's a significant thing so like the NASA engineers of your and currently I try and use all whole numbers when I do this so I'm gonna go two inches from the man look at that okay now I look at that and I think yeah that's right mm-hmm could it be two and a half to be two and a half I think it could be two and a half this just looks a little anemic as the second part of this box and that feels just a little more substantial so I don't need to measure it because we're going to make the cut using the table saw I'm going to set it add a width of two and a half inches I'm gonna set it just higher than the plywood you know and away we go now I'm pushing this against this I have a lot of meat with which I can grab this this is a tricky cut you don't want to mess around with it but honestly I haven't gotten into trouble making this one before so hopefully I won't here let's see I'm gonna use that there we go now I chose the order of these cuts carefully I wanted the widest flattest most stable surface for my last cut because as soon as it releases the material in the other end this piece becomes a potential projectile and I don't want that so I'm going to be holding this tight pushing down also using this other hand like any to push against the fence and make sure everything is being really well held once I get through the blade there we go I don't have to worry about this piece it's just sitting there and there you have it thank you gentlemen a box and its lid it's always good to just always go from the same sides when you build this like you don't want to try and put the box together like this it just it might not go back the way you think just don't ever count on everything being perfect in square and symmetrical now the only other person I know who has a linear with a scotch-brite pad on it is Peter Lyons so Peter at Wetty if everyone starts coming to your shop to do their woodworking corner rounding sorry about that I've got my box and my lid but they how do I make sure if they connect to each other well I can put some connectors on the other side to be certain but I also don't want a little bit of alignment so I'm going to add a lip to the inside of this that holds the two boxes together in fact I think I'm gonna put that lid the question is whether to put it on here or here so that begs the question of what looks better like if that's like that looks like it it looks kind of like a tray it's kind of neat all right I'm gonna have these on that little bit of a riser there yeah yeah okay so I think I'm gonna put it in here okay so uh in order to do that I'm gonna use some super short nails and I'm gonna use some thinner plywood now this beautiful this is actually made by Revell model company it's they're a 8 inch by 12 by 24 inch birch ply and like I said it's lovely stuff it has a little bit of a bend to it which means you could do some relatively shallow curves and when you start curving plywood things get pretty magical but that's another video two pieces that are exactly twelve and a half by 1/8 you want to do one inch wide so I don't wanna write okay I'm gonna cut some one inch strip and that will get me all the way around and then I'll make the cuts on the one inch so here we go so the reason you don't want to cut things that are wider than they are long is imagine if you tried to cut this on the table saw as you fed it in and this blade is creating all of this energy attacking this piece of wood pushing it down it's also trying to cast it this way which means as you're pulling any bit of torsion like this any bit of adjustment that happens is going to get kicked into the blade and this thing's gonna go all the way across if you're in a woodshop right now I'm sure you can point to the piece of plywood that shows how unhappy mr. table-saw can get when you don't feed him correctly yeah every shop has that piece of wood so in order to cut these pieces down I'm again gonna go to my fence this is the point in my construction where I often stop using rulers to come up with my critical dimensions and just start using the real world so now I'm just measuring this to this there we go so I'm going to cut to that side of this line using my fence now I'm gonna cut both pieces at once which means I'm lining their ends up so they're super square and then I'm holding them down on the fence and I'm bringing them over to the blade and now I'm gonna make incredibly sure that the edge of the blade cuts precisely to the line that I want yeah if you look at this shot you will see and I am right on the freaking money test fit oh look at that it actually wedges in that's the ideal that's like when it wedges in that's within like mm measurement I need is minus the thickness of these two pieces of wood because I'll have one on either side I put them both at the bottom and then I put this piece up to it press it down and make my measurement if I have to take this down a little bit it's easy enough to do on the belt sander but I think that went really well and I'm doing I cut these little pieces of paper for a really specific reason and we're gonna kind of love it and that is that I have found in the past that when I make a alignment border like this for joining two boxes to each other that I often end up with a little bit of a fitment issue because it's all meant to fit together a little come on come on there we go a little too closely right so this is my biggest issue as a builder is I often build things to to haigha tolerance and then my lids don't go back on again and if I made this I would be able to get it into here but I'd have to sand the inside of this and sand the outside of this as I've done many times so now what I do is I'll frequently use a piece of heavy cardstock and I'll cut a strip and that strip will give me the extra little distance and it's not much here we go let's see here 20 mm some a CH but that gives me a little bit of the tolerance wiggle room that I seek because I've screwed it up so many times all right I forgot to mark it so let me just give a little bit of a mark so I have something kind of compared to okay now I add some more glue do the top in the bottom listen always just glue the whole surface seriously this is one of the biggest lessons I've gotten from hundreds of hours of watching YouTube carpenters ply their beautiful trade they just make sure they have 100% coverage between glue joints and frankly it's just made me a better carpenter to follow the same practice oh love a press fit come on in come oh that's a little tight I bet that's from the other side oh that's it okay all my tolerances yep excellent and the last one coming at ya oh that's why it's a little off because I had the thickness of the paper well I just screwed it up hold on so I just shattered my glue joint there I didn't shatter it but I busted it because I hadn't accounted for the thickness of the paper so let me get a little bit of oh yeah I could just get another oh look at that I somehow know maybe you were watching and you didn't see I didn't staple the whole second part in apparently I didn't so let me get some some nails in there as far as these guys I I feel pretty good about that that is um it's just a little bit to fix I'm just gonna put a couple of nails in here I'll have to cut them and sand them down but they'll just mechanically hold this thing in place and if you watch here you'll see them come through nice thing about these is a simple flush cutter makes it go away as always you wear eye protection to keep the little flying pieces of wire from finding the soft flesh of your aqueous humor I know there's no flush in the aqueous humor there's one little fitment problem left which is that while I use the paper to offset on the inside my my lip here that also necessitated the the top of this actually coming in a little bit so I need to do a tiny bit of chisel work here right there that bit is proud so I just want to and I take it down just a little bit you can do this with a chisel you can do it with a saw you can do it with a hell you can do with a sanding stick Oh Oh screwed up okay let's use a sanding stick shall we alright we're gonna do a test-fit here that's my a side this is my a side and we bring these to each other there we are that's lovely that's a nice positive fit without a ton of movement twenty thousand on a slop to give yourself in carpentry projects that worked out really really nicely so now the question is let's see what's next I think I want to do big structural stuff before I do small detail stuff so the next thing is the stand for the gloves on the stand for the gloves and hold them about like this and I could like screw in some dowels to hold them up here but well if you read my book you know I like mechanical connections rather than glue so I'm not gonna glue them in I'm just gonna make a platform that sits in the bottom of this that holds them and then I can change it later if I so desire so that piece that I will lay into the bottom of this is precisely 8 inches by 12 and a half now what I'm about to do is cut a piece of this semi crappy ply which I'll cover over and hide the crimes that slips inside this and holds the gloves upright and the critical dimensions here are 8 inches by 12 and a half but I'm not gonna cut my piece of wood to that I'm gonna cut it just a tiny bit under each of those measurements so that it slides in and they don't have to force it so I'm just gonna go about something less than 1/16 of an inch probably about no that's not the cut I want to make first I want to do the 12 inch cut first and the 8 inch cut second so I'm gonna go to 12 and 1/2 I'm going to go it but it's about 50 thousandths just slightly less than 1/16 under now for the 8 inch cut same thing coming under by just slightly less than one of the sixteenth inch markers and we'll see how I did oh yeah look at that now you'd call that an exact freaking fit but the fact is it's under by about fifty thousand that means that it can slide back out again I like this tell this will be great one there one there all right I figured out how I want this to look and I'm gonna do it out of one-inch Delrin now I know this is a woodworking video but I want to just say one thing about using Forstner bits on Delrin in your lathe your lathe isn't gonna like it and I don't mean that it's problematic I just mean that it's a tremendous amount of force that gets put on it and that means it's often gonna push the work into your jaw so when you're using a Forstner bit on Delrin on your lathe or on anything honestly you want to make sure it's really clamped down well excellent let's say about there yeah it's true the sled is fabulous for irregular shapes as well it kind of negates the need for a chop saw here and that's why you'll notice we don't have one I mean I I have one I think I own three but I don't need them permanently set up here all right wood screws good yep I didn't hear it go put up either but that's fine it'll do fine for this build all right there we go I've got the glove part done let's put this on the lid that goes in there and one glove goes here one glove goes there that's really nice and sits on top of that okay we're good I'm very happy with that so let's put in some hardware so now it's time to put on my hardware and to do that do a bit of this business great there's that and then there's that and nice it's very happy with that okay great now on to the other side right there we go that is a box now it's not quite done but sorry I positioned it for me not for you there you go like that and close it up now this is the point in the build there's still a lot left to do to turn this into the kind of vessel that I like storing my favorite things in but this is the point at which for me creatively I would sort of sit back and live with this for a while I had the handle set out for this I didn't like that handle I want to find a different one I may end up I'm probably gonna end up painting this whole thing white I don't know what the insides gonna look like I might even cut a window at this stage with a box build I usually don't have a clear path forward and I just sort of live with it for a little while see what I like I may go print up some NASA stickers and think about putting them in different places I may do some sketches this box while I'm on a plane trip but as far as a lovely vessel and a simple wooden box to hold a beautiful object in I think it is an excellent Thanks
