Jayne, as someone who has very arthritic thumbs, I feel your pain. If you’d like to loosen the fit of your boxes just take the top off and give one of the sides a few swipes with an Emory board. Try to maintain the angle and go slow, it doesn’t take much to loosen them.

Rudy and fazool, beautiful woodwork!!

I use a cool tin that my cat's catnip toy came in. It's big enough for my favorite picks. The other tin I use is the Altoids and they are actually my favorite because they are big enough for picks and a Shubb capo.

35mm film canisters some are the older screw top metal ones, but most are the plastic ones.

The inside is kerfed and braced with spruce, the top is cedar (my favorite tonewood), the purfling is abalone and the binding is rosewood.

Most Excellent fazool! Love everything you have done to this box!

Thats beautiful and clever! After each build, I have scraps and remnants that I just cant discard. Now I know what my next project will be. And great practice on finishing techniques. And binding. And inlay….

I have forgotten where I bought this black walnut puzzle box, but it’s where I’ve kept the handful of picks I have for at least the last 10 years.

It took me all of five minutes to decide to order one of these.
