Did a glue up of thin boards for a top panel, used an old plane to koint the edges..

Set this aside, had grooves to make

Along with a rebate to house the top panel, I had these side grooves. They only go halfway through. Needed to flip the boards over, and mill a matching, offset groove.

Some I had to finish off with a knife. Then a bit of shoulder plane work

Testing the fit as I went.

Will do, for now. Got all four sides done (whew!!) and then grabbed a big handful of clamps..

Lid is now in the clamps, all glued up. Square was there for reference. Did had one fault with the 45 today. On those wide spaced cuts, where you need to flip the fence over?

The cam does work, but, that bolt to adjust the fence's wood side? It started to drag along ON the wood. This is from doing the top rebate. I could just barely reach it. Tried it with the fence flipped...didn't work too well. That bolt has way too large of a head to it, sticks down as low as the fence does.
Will work on adding the bottom panel to the box, maybe some other items inside, and then a glue up of the box. Maybe then I can fit the two parts together,and maybe look to print out a green and white label.
