Ribbon Handle Box

Building boxes is a fundamental woodworking skill. After all, the techniques used to build a box are also key to many furniture projects. And when you consider the added scrutiny a small project receives, your woodworking skills, and attention to detail, will be put to the test. In this design, the basic box is built using splined miters. The “ribbon” box features an interesting inlay and handle, and a clever technique is used for creating a lipped, fitted lid.
