Micro Wood Lathe Accessory Box

IMG_20181104_095004.jpg

I've bought a micro lathe from a online chinese shop. It comes into a cardboard box with many accessories ( power supply, pivots, and a dozen of cheap chisels).

The lathe itself need a couple of clamps to fix it on the table (vibration was very strong), so I thinked to add a simple wooded base.

Another problem is that the assessories comes without any box or pouch to storage it.

So at the and I added a drawer underneath the wooden base.

Cut the Wood

All wood pieces come from two panels of poplar plywood: 10mm thickness and 4mm thickness for the bottom of the drawer and the two stops.
