Threw together a simple cedar box over the past two evenings for a carving set my brother had made handles for. Box is made of wood from the same tree as the handles. Simple box joints. First time for gluing up all 6 sides and then cutting off the top leaving a lip. Went with 1/4" diameter rare earth magnets on all 4 corners (reversing polarity direction on one end for lid orientation) rather than hinges, plus an 1/8" magnet in the knife slot to secure it. Lid removes easily by sliding, but is very hard to pull open. I will leave final sanding and finishing to my brother after I deliver it. Sorry about picture orientation - gravity does work the same direction in my shop as everywhere else.
