The Workshop: "slow and steady progress" 4

Certain pieces of lumber are intrinsically valuable because of what lies inside, beyond the dusty or weathered surface. Cut, sand and assemble the right pieces and - voila! - something very useful can be constructed.

["Five sections for valuable treasures"]

["The top of the box must be constructed next"]

["Proper hinges have to be cleaned and oiled"]

["Measure, measure again. I'll get it right"]

I'm now enjoying the middle stages of a challenging project. Slow and steady wins the race.
