I made a mail caddy to hang in the entrance way to our house. I was all ready to hang it, and my wife wanted to get some art to go along with it. I offered to make something for her.
Getting the angles right is harder than one might think. Flat straight boards are paramount for getting the right glue-ups. I used a jointer to flatten the back of each board and one side, then used my band saw to straighten up the 3rd side, and kept the top rough for each board.
