I have made 1 so far. I have a Startright 352 and can use a 1/4" 6tpi blade at the moment. Back off the 2 rear edges of any bandsaw or scroll saw blade with an abrasive stone to get a tighter turning circle. I am just about to start making a few more of these boxes. I will probably line the drawers with flocking, suede tex.

There's an interesting post over on the General Woodworking forum on Bandsaw Boxes. Find it here.
