Tom cuts rabbets around the underside of the lid using a router table, then cleans up the marks left by the router bit using a rabbet plane. He planes a chamfer around the top of the lid using a smooth plane guided by a unique shop-made jig. Lastly, Tom shows you his favorite wipe-on finish to make the wood glow.
