The Blanket Box is made in seasoned redwood and pine. The main body has dovetail corners. The base is a separate piece with a rebate into which the sides are fitted. The feet are oak. The lid has mitred corners and mitred edges to achieve a seamless finish.
Below: The plan for the lid of the blanket box showing the mitred joints, used in order to
achieve a seamless finish. As with the other pieces, this was done by
hand, using smoothing planes, multi plane and shoulder plane.
