I wanted to make a box to hold my comic books collection and I needed a reason to try out my Incra box joint jig.

I cut one piece of 1/2" plywood down to 24"x24". This will become the side panels.
I ripped another piece to 8 1/2" wide to use as the ends.
I switched out the blade for a dado set, so I could cut 1/4" dados.
I set the saw to only cut 1/4" deep.
I cut a dado every inch across the whole board.
I left 1 1/2" on each end.
This piece was cut in half, perpendicular to the dados.
I trimmed the end pieces to the same height as the side panels.
This is my first time using this Incra box joint jig. It takes a little bit to setup, but then it's very easy to use.
I clamped together the end pieces and cut finger joints on one side.
Keeping them lined up, I moved the clamps to the other side.
Then I cut matching fingers on the other edge.
I clamped together the side panels.
Then I cut fingers on both ends of the panels.
The cut outs were cleaned up with a rolled up piece of sandpaper.
On each piece, I clamped down a straight edge about 3" up.
I used this as a guide to cut a rabbet along the bottom edge of all four pieces.
I added glue to all of the cut outs, then assembled the finger joints.
The joints were tight enough to have to be forced together (that's good).
I used some clamping pressure to pull them all of the way together.
For glue drying, I added corner clamps to keep the corners square.
After it dried, I added glue to the rabbet.
I cut a piece of 1/4" mdf to fit and dropped it in place.
I added some weight to make good surface contact while the glue dried.
I set a stop block on my sled and cut several pieces of MDF to act as dividers.
1/4" was what I had on hand, but 1/8 would be a better choice.
I clamped the dividers and rounded the bottom corners, so they would slide into the dados easily.
Then I test fitted the dividers and sanded as needed.
With an orbital sander, I sanded all of the finger "tips" flush, being sure not to sand away the top layer of veneer.
The whole box got a couple of coats of varnish.
Then I just had to move over all of my comics! Second channel: bit.ly/iltms-2
