Making my wooden box

In my previous post, I talked about making my cardboard box. Soon after I finished that, I started to create my box. The cardboard model helped me make my box because I had a sense of what my box would look like and the size it would be. It also helped me because I knew how the pieces would fit together. Tools like the rules and try squares were pretty easy to get the hang of, but some of the saws made me nervous. When I was cutting my cardboard box with the scroll saw, I was scared that the cardboard would slip a little and the line would be way off. With the saws for the wooden box, I was scared that I would put the saw on the wrong part of the wood and it would saw off too much of it. When I was measuring, it would take me a couple tries to get the measurement perfectly perpendicular. I also had trouble getting the line to be the perfect length. For me though, it was more easy then hard with the measuring. When I was cutting the wood, the saw would get stuck a lot and I always pointed the tip of the saw up accidentally.
