What is the best way to align and attach hinges on a jewelry box? I

have
made several, but after cutting the top off so that the grain aligns,

which
looks great, I struggle with attaching the hinges. Usually after

attaching
the hinges and closing the box, the top is a little to the left or

right
or
not quite flush to the front. It's a pain to do all this work and not

have
the top line up.
What methods are being used to make the cuts for the hinges and how do

you
hold the base and top to ensure precise alignment.

Thanks,
