50 Pennsylvania Spice Box

FIRST OF TWO PARTS

Believe it or not, the marquetry and joinery on this stunning little box were done almost entirely with a router. In this first installment, Glen Huey shows you how to build the carcase and a frame-and-panel door — in case the marquetry is too much for you. In the next issue, we'll show you how templates and a straight bit can make the marquetry manageable. By Glen Huey

62 Craftsman Wall Shelf

Make room for photos, pottery and handmade tiles with this cherry shelf unit. The wedged through-tenon joinery is traditional but do-able thanks to a clever template and a router. By Rick Peters

68 Tractor-Trailer Toy Box

Load up the army men, blocks and plastic snakes. This easy-to-build toy box is tough enough to ride and roomy enough to store a heap of toys. If you start building it now, you can make it just in time for Christmas. ByAl Krogh

84 Modern Occasional Table

This simple contemporary table has a secret. Lift up its top and you'll find the perfect storage space for those unused remote controls, VCR manuals and other stuff you don't need everyday.
