Have 6 jewerly boxes to make. Working on four now, one is Cherry, another
is Purple Heart, the 3d is white oak, and the fourth is mahogany. Need to
find some different 1/2" thick wood for the other two. Hmmm, wonder what a
Baltic Birch ply would look like, just bought some of Rockler's small
sheets last weekend for $2.50 a piece.

Do you jewelry box makers have all those cool miniature table saws and what
not? I tried to make a few boxes, but my 12" chop saw didn't have the
accuracy, even with a really good fine cut blade in it.



I have a Delta 10" Benchtop (about $99 around here), it works really
nice for small stuff, but it's a PITA for bigger things. Just make
sure that the fence is square every time you move it.
