Create a box that has a lid with a hinge, a divided tray, and a drawer in MCBA’s studios.

A fun thing to do when making boxes is to create custom containers to hold your treasures, tools, and collections. Learn to create drawers that slide and divisions within the box. 

Level: Intermediate. Basic box building experience is required, including experience covering boards and checking to make sure your boards and compartments are square.
Certificate: 10 hours, Category B or C
