Greetings,

The URL shows the box. It links to a book on Amazon,
which sells used for $147 (eep!).
I did find the same title and author for $9.99 at
http://shop.wooodcraft.com Product Number 10Q21 .

I would still like to get a set of the plans
themselves.

Sincerely,
Bill Thomas

I have searched for and not found the plans for a Jewel Box
with a hidden keyhole and a small compartment in the base
to hide the key. I have seen this box several times, at least
once as an example for what the plans show how to build.
Woodcraft had the plans for sell at one time but now I can
not find them at the Woodcraft site.


While I don't have plans handy...

I recall one in a book called "Puzzles in Wood" (which I have
somewhere in storage). Here's a link to a picture and blurb of it.

Here, they use the false books to hide as well as guide the one
opening the box. I know Japanese boxes also use complicated
inlays to hide the edges between two sections that slide against
each other. (Some beautiful work... hope I can do as well one
day.)

Sorry its not plans, but that book is supposed to be more
descriptive. Hope this helps.

Kurt
