A Keepsake Box With Grain Matched Mitered Corners

In this video I’m going build a small keepsake box with continuous grain flowing around the splined mitered corners… with a few design changes along the way.

Thanks!

Hi Dave, good video. I like your narration. I see too many woodworking videos with no narration. I usually get frustrated watching those types of videos. I like to know what the woodworker is thinking while he is making his project. Thank you for posting. You earned a thumbs-up, and I subscribed to your channel.👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks, John!

Thank you! I've been looking all week for a jig or idea to cut splines into my boxes. That jig gave me the perfect idea(I'll never use a table saw, no matter the benefits)

I've used this on a router table too.
