I got nominated for making a shadowbox for a cooworker who is retiring. I am an amatuer/weekend WW, but that's the best in my office at the moment. Since the front will be lidded and have a glass pane so everyone can ooooh and ahhh over the years at his medals, ribbons, an etc... I am in the process of figuring out an easy way to accomplish this. This is what i was going to do. Getting the glass cut to my needed dimensions is easy. lot of people around here for that. I was wondering if I used my "raised panel" stile and rail bits if that would suffice for this task, since they would provide the same interior groove I would use for a raised panel. Then I would slip in the glass pane in the grooves and attached my last wood piece to hold the glass in (rectangular). Hope I didn't confuse anyone.
