Let's Get Started
To reduce the risk of injury user must read instruction manuals for all tools used in this project. Wear eye and respiratory protection. Use clamps to support work piece whenever practical.
Make the sides
Start by cutting a 1/2" x 6 oak board to a rough length to 32". Then, create a dado (recess in the board) that the box lid will slide in later. To do that, set your Dremel Rotary Tool up in the Plunge Base accessory with a 1/4" straight router bit. Set the bit location, as shown on the part illustration. Set the depth of the bit for the first pass about 1/16" deep. With the Dremel Tool off the work piece, start the tool and make the first pass along the entire edge of the board. Adjust the depth of the bit slightly and make another pass. Repeat this until you reach the depth of 1/4". Sand the face of the board, as well as the dado.
Make the tall end
Clamp a 1/2" x 4 x 48" oak board to a work surface. Using the same router setting and process you used on the Sides, rout a dado on one end of the board. Then, mark the final length of the Tall End and cross-cut it to final length with the Dremel Saw-Max.
