Halloween Lantern Build

In this video we build a few cedar door lanterns for Halloween. Easy cheap build that will take less than a day.

Love it! I think I will modify it a bit tho. I will make the back about 2 inches shorter, leaving the gap on the bottom, then using a Forstner bit, drilling a cutout to accept an LED Tea Light which will fit in the space in the back

Cool project. What CNC are you using.?

So did you get any of your kids to help (they need to get off the computer games with my kid! Lol).
Just out of curiosity, why pass the wood piece through the cut opening for the lid piece instead of just passing your hand through the opening and dropping your wood piece on top to your awaiting fingers? (I found that highly funny 🤣).
These are nice, you can put pumpkins on top too, right? You should have a follow-up video of carving some just to get the kids off the computer (and mine back to his lab work! Lol).
