I recently completed a kindling box based largely on plans i purchased from Matt Kenney. Ive not done much previous work with mortise and tenon or dovetails so i wanted to test on some poplar for the economics of it. I simplified the design both by accident/error and choice. I plan to use this to store 6 inch and 4 inch lengths of wood for use in our Solostove Mesa Xl tabletop fireplace. Drawer will have some misc fire starters, matches, etc.
Im planning to make another out of beech that I have on hand and have the wood processed. Originally I planned to do them both at the same time but didnt go through with the beech.
Lessons learned: seat time with the d4r pro, sharpen the chisels better, dont skip stuff because its hard or because i havent done it
