Fly Box made on a Microrouter Compact

I am posting some photos of a fly box project carried out by Middle School Kids in Montana.
The project is done by all in the class where they machine the box themselves. I believe they then manually trim and finish the two halves before engraving a logo of their own design on the Lid.
The project has been run for a few years now and Mark has sent a sequence of photos to show how the fixturing has been developed to make production much more acurate and reliable.
The hardest part of machining these things is holding the work down and positioning the part accurately in reference to the datum position
