Hello all, This uneducated fella needs some advice.
I am going to make a jewelry box for my daughter and it is mostly 1/2" thick. Where I live the temperature difference, in my shop, night to day is about 15 degrees. I can't keep it heated 24/7. There is a local supplier of all types of wood so the temperature and moisture content of the wood will be close to the same. I plan to resaw and plane to the desired dimension's so would you buy 4/4, 5/4, 6/4.etc: (x 6"). I am trying to keep it from cupping or bowing or any of the other bad things that happen.
All suggestions and experience appreciated!
thanks, jaq
