Manufacure a box


 

 

 

It is easy to manufacture a box.

 

The idea is based on cutting a groove in e.g. the plywood that is to become the bottom, sides and lid of the box. Using the clips and the groove, you will combine the sides to a box.

  

For description of box and groove, see pdf. Drawing Example box and

Drawing Tolerance box.

 

A simple and cheap method to create a groove is to start from the sawn sides and after that cut a groove using a chip cutter or saw blade.

 

A simpler and quicker method is to use an extra saw blade to cut the groove at the same time as sawing the format.       

 

A complete box often requires a pallet or wooden blocks for the handling of the box.
