Back in pioneer days, this might have been called a six-board chest. The top, bottom, front, back, and ends were made of single wide boards. Today, itÆs rare to find wood that wide, so we glued up narrower boards to create the wide panels in our Country Blanket Chest.
Pioneers would have used dovetail joinery as much for its strength as for looks. We have included special step-by-step instructions for hand-cutting these dovetails. Or, if you prefer, weÆve also included instructions for a simpler butt joint with screws and plugs.
This plan also includes instructions for making the tray that sits inside the chest on rail supports.
The Country Blanket Chest in the photo is made of clear pine. If you prefer a more rustic look, you can use a grade of pine with some knots to add more character. The finish is three coats of shellac.
