My 2 x 4 CD Holder

My little CD holder.

Challenge #1 in senior wood was to build something out of a piece of 2" x 4" x 8' pine. It took me quite awhile to decide what I was going to build. I finally settled on this CD holder to display my autographed Veruca Salt CD (my pride and joy). I ended up using only 1/2 of the 8" piece and therefore I lost some marks. If I had known I'd have so much left I would have made a second one. One thing I learnt from this project was that many of the cuts were similar to eachother as they ran around the perimeter of the case. I wasn't thinking of this during production and ended up adjusting the table saw for every cut because I made every piece individually instead of all at once. Production would have gone much faster if I'd made everything together. I plan to line the inside with velvet and place some glass in the front.
