How to make a simple wooden box

 Sometimes something as simple as a wooden box can become a great option for storing small things for which we cannot find a place and although we can buy them made at a good price, we always have the opportunity to get to work and make them at home using a few tools.

 The first thing to do is choose the wood with which to make the box. In this case we can use wood that we have left over from another previous project or buy loose woods, as well as hinges that adapt to the size of the box that we are going to make and their corresponding screws.


 Determining the size of the box is essential, therefore the meter will be essential as well as a pencil to mark the cutting lines or where we must make holes, etc. Once we have the appropriate measures, we can use the traditional hand saw, although it is best to use the electric saw so that the cuts come out straighter and the box is perfectly, but always taking extreme precautions and taking all possible safety measures.

 The measurements must be identical for the walls of the box, that is, the parts that are opposite each other must always have the same measurement and when they are together we can place the top and bottom so that everything fits perfectly.

 To join the different parts of the box you have to use a special glue for wood. In the market they sell industrial glues that give very good results, but we must glue slowly, making the pieces fit perfectly and then, if possible, hold them firm with a lathe to make sure that the union is firm, something we must do with all parts of the box.

 If we want to ensure a maximum union, in addition to the glue we can nail some nails so that the pieces are 100% fixed holding the box and last much longer.

 When placing the hinges we have to be very exact because they will join the lower part of the box with the upper one. For this reason, it is best to place the cover completely aligned and fix it with lathes so that it does not move and we can work more easily with it

 Now we have to put the hinges and for this we will hold them by hand and mark with the pencil the hole where the screws will go to be able to fix them with the screwdriver and the screws, ensuring that they do not move at any time.

 When we have everything ready, we can sand the wood and leave it as it is or give it a coat of varnish so that it is as we want. Painting it in colors, pyro-engraving it or making a special primer can also be another alternative to get the box we have created to be the way we like it.

 You choose the small wooden boxes wholesale and decide the price that the box will have and then you will only have to follow these simple steps to make it, there is no greater difficulty. Do you dare to make a simple wooden box?
