Good Morning Folks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have completed my month long project of resurrecting a dice game that I made as a freshman\/sophomore in high school wood shop. It is called Shut the Box and I made one that was, in my opinion, crap! It only had 8 of the original 9 flappers and was full of mistakes made by my impatient younger self.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I spent a great deal of time working on making this one bigger and better in every way. I took my time and made sure that EVERY measurement was correct before any cut was made, I still made a few, but anyone would be hard pressed to find them! There are now 12 flappers, which increases the difficulty of the game, and the lid fits MUCH better! My wife also assisted in creating the numbers and name of the game on the lid with her Cricut! Family and friends have said that it looks professionally made! What a compliment!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project differs from the original in that I used box joints instead of miters, (I hate mitered joints!) along with felt inside the dice storage box, as well as a difference in wood selected. I used Pine instead of Oak and a Golden Oak stain to make the grain pop! I also routed the top of the flappers with a round over bit and placed spacing washers between each one.\u00a0 I am so happy with it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what is going to be my next project? A travel version!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
