I’m going to do my best to show you how I make the dividers for my jewelry boxes. It took me years to develop the method and finished product you’ll see here. The photograph above is a finished Medium Striped Lid Jewelry Box with the dividers installed. Below will be the construction process.
This tool is a Jointer and in most woodworking shops a project starts here. This tool creates a straight edge that is 90 degrees to the sides. When I make dividers I will prepare both edges.
I then cut a 3/16” wide strip on the band saw with the jointed edge against the rip fence. The black object is a feather board. It’s used to keep the wood tight against the rip fence.
Here are a bunch of strips after the band saw process.
This tool is a planer and it’s used to take the pieces down to 1/8” thick. It gives me a smooth face parallel to the edge that was created on the jointer. The rest of this process will be completed in the next post.

Sonia, you have to pay attention, there will be a test later.
Wow, what a lovely jewelry box. ♥ I adore the scenery of the first photo; so white, so soft. :)
Lola, Thank you, and I always try to display my finished work on that white fuzzy wazzy.
Really? Hmm, I've never noticed.... Nice! :)
That's the idea Lola, you're supposed to notice what's on it.
