    Jerry might just have it. Specifically because he doesn't want to say it.

    As stated, I didn't really have time to glue up the boards. Normally, I would have roughed them, biscuit jointed them, and then planned them, but there really isn't time.

    Instead I opted for my front and side boards to be 6 inches and my bottom and top boards to be 8 inches wide. Ideally, I would have loved to dovetail the corners but, again, I don't really have that kind of time here.

    I opted to cleat the inside.
    You can see the sides are held together with cleats and the front and the back screw in to those cleats and holds the boards together.

    Here it is with the top roughed out and cleated together.

    And here it is after final trimming, hand planning, sanding, and two coats of stain.

    Due to the time crunch here, I had to have my dad come over and help me last night. Tonight I will put the hardware on it and it will be complete and ready when needed.
    Know what it is yet?

    Is a "Cuss Box" for when we all come over, and the $ goes to Big Brothers & Big Sisters?

    Funny, I volunteered for Big Brothers/sisters for 10 years. Not a cuss jar.

    Humidor. Interesting answer but not it either.

    I'll list the hints I gave:
    Not a lot of time

    The joy was overshadowed by the product I was making

    It will be complete and ready when needed.

    Last picture due tomorrow as I finished it.
