Woodwork Project: Jig for Mitered Corner Boxes - Using Hand Tools Only

Hand Tool Woodworking.

I recently set myself a challenge to build a mitered corner box using hand tools only. The hardest problem in that kind of project is cutting accurate 45' angles along the length of a board, so I designed this jig to help.

The reason behind all of this is the recognition that a new woodworker with a limited number of tools is often prevented from trying out some more adventurous projects because the usual methods demonstrated assume access to machine tools or specialist hand tools. I wanted to show how a novice woodworker with a minimum of hand tools could expand the range of projects possible.

This video probably is even slower paced than my usual videos, buts thats because I wanted to ensure I didn't skip over anything that a novice woodworker might not yet have picked up.

I used this jig to make a beach and walnut miter cornered keepsake box, and that build will be coming up in my next video.
