you are using. Place it on edge directly on the pattern; adjust the width of the cutout area as needed to ensure that the leg sections fit perfectly together.

Make the bottom panel (J) from 3/8" material. Cut an opening for access to the musical movement. Locations are shown for the parts that attach to the top of this panel, to aid with assembly.

Make the front/back panels (A) from I/4" material. Both parts can be stack-sawn simultaneously, or the back panel can be made as a solid panel if desired. Note: the brackets (E) should be made to mate with the front and back panels. They are separate pieces and attach to the outside of the side panels (C). For continuity of the wood color and grain patterns, place the patterns on the wood as if all are made in one piece, but separate them by cutting out the 1/4" space between them. Make the four brackets (E), as described, from 1/4" material. Make the end panels (C) from 1/4" material. Both parts can be stack-sawn simultaneously.

Make the lid (J) from 3/8" material. Locations are shown for the parts that attach to the top of the lid. Make the two guide blocks (long) 3/8" x 3/4" x 4-1/2". The blocks attach to the underside of the lid, and are used to line up the lid when it is placed on the box. Make two long strips of decorative trim (F) from 1/4" material. Both parts can be stack-sawn simultaneously. Make two short strips of decorative trim (G) from 1/4" material. The pattern includes two end pieces which should be separated from the main piece. Both parts can be stack-sawn simultaneously. Make the main section of the handle (h) as well as the two side sections for the handle from 1 /A" material.

Make two angel overlays (T) from 1 /8" material. Make crosses (S) to insert into front and rear panels from 1 /4" material.

Make front and back liner pane's (K) from 1/8" material to fit inside the box, approx. 2-5/8" high by 11-1/4" long. (Make slightly larger, and trim to fit during assembly.) Because they are basically rectangles, no pattern is provided for the liner panels. Make two end liner panels (L) from 1/8" material, approx. 2-5/8" high by 4-3/4" long. (Make slightly larger, and trim to fit

during assembly.) Again no pattern necessary.

Make a mounting board (U) for the musical movement from 1/16" material. Make sides for a box to cover the musical movement (M) from 1 /8" material. Cut one piece to 1-9/16" x 3", and leave the other piece 1-9/16" x 3-1/8". Make the top for the cover (N) from 1/8" material. Make a glue block (P) to strengthen the cover assembly, 3/8" x 3/4" x 1-5/16". Make two support blocks (Q) 3/8" x 1/2" x 1-1/2" to use for securing box to liner. Make a block 3/8" x 3/4" x 1-3/8" to use as a shut-off for the musical movement (O).

Assembly

Start by dry-fitting the leg sections together. Use rasps, needle files, and etc., to adjust the halved-joints to fit together. Place all four sections upside down on a flat work surface; start in one corner and apply glue to all surfaces of the joints that will contact; work your way around to complete all four corners; use a carpenter's square to square-up the assembly; clamp together until dry.

Glue the front, back and side panels together to make the box. Take your time to ensure that all the corners are square, and that all four of the panels are also standing perfectly vertical. Clamp together until dry. Note: Don't attach these panels to the bottom panel yet; there are a few steps to do first.

Place the mounting board for the musical movement over the opening in the bottom panel. Mark locations for the mounting screws, and pre drill one or two pilot holes through the panel. Temporarily attach the mounting board to the panel with a couple No. 0 x 3/8" mounting screws; set the box assembly in position to check that there will be clearance for the box liner. Make adjustments as needed, and finish drilling the pilot holes and installing the other mounting screws. Then remove it all, turn the bottom upside down, and proceed as follows.

With the bottom panel upside down on a flat work surface, glue the leg assembly in position. Basically, it attaches directly below the front, back and side panels, whose locations are shown on the pattern for the bottom panel. Clamp together until dry.

Glue the front, back and side panel assembly to the top of the bottom panel. Clamp together until
