I am trying to figure out how to attach the walnut top to the box I am making for a humidor. The box is walnut with Spanish cedar bottom glued into a rabbit. The issue I am having is how to attach the top. The corners will be metered with male keys. I will assemble the box and the cut off the top. It will be 14"X11"x5". I was thinking of using a dato in the sides that the top which I will create a rabbit will sit into. The top needs to be flush on top with the sides. Will the wood movement cause issues with this design. Any suggestions on how to do it. I do not want to leave any gaps between the sides and top that can be seen when closed. The inside will be covered by the cedar lining.
thanks,
Mark
