Spend two days building a lovely hardwood Moravian dovetailed candlebox that incorporates several advanced hand tool woodworking methods, including making a raised panel, cutting mitered dovetails, using a moulding plane and hollows & rounds, cutting grooves, and attaching the bottom using traditional cut nails. Not only will you bring home a charming box, but you’ll bring home a handful of advanced woodworking skills.
