Scrap wood ideas small square box with a turned lid
Good Evening Everyone,
Well, I was very busy all day today and I decided since I had been a good girl, the wood fairies should reward me with an hour in the work shop.
I generate a lot of small scrap like most wood workers do and Im really ruthless about getting rid of them and keeping the shop uncluttered. But it does pay to keep small blocks of wood-they make knobs and other small things that you dont want to cut up a larger piece of lumber for.
I bought a large glued up pine block a while back and I cut it into smaller blocks (youll see one of them tomorrow when I write about the tea box). I bought some small earrings recently and I needed a small box to keep them in and so I took two of the smaller pine blocks and put them to work.
Here we go:
I decided to make a small square box for my earrings. Its a fast short term project that is easy to make:

I took the larger of the two blocks and sanded the sides smooth and then I drilled a 2 1/4" diameter hole into the center of it with a Forstner bit and that finished the box portion. Then I took the other block and drilled a 1"diameter hole into it and used the hole to put it on the lathe. I cut a small tenon on it that is the same diameter as the hole in the block so the two fit together:

Then I shaped the outside of the top to smooth it and to create a small knob. Total turning time was about 30 minutes from beginning to end:

The box needs to be sanded very smoothed and then finished. This is a neat project if you need to make a small gift for someone or if you want to use it as a gift box to give to someone with a present inside.
Another amazing adventure at SWW Blog!
See you tomorrow,
