I decided to try something I have never attempted before. I wanted to make a sliding dovetail box but I didn't want to use the router to make the dovetails. Normally these are made on the router table with a dovetail bit. I was not sure I could get a good sliding fit on the lid but it was easier than I expected. I made two and they both fit fine.The video below shows how I cut this project. The pattern also includes a pictorial of the steps. If you look at both you should be able to make these boxes pretty easily.
