Fast and simple wooden boxes, I use them for my paintings. It saves me money by making them myself. You can make the boxes in any size that you want. For this instructable the box that i made was 6 x 6 x 2.125. I have also made 12 x 12 x 3.125 and 5 x 5 x 1.125. 

Step 1: Simple Plywood Box...

Using the table saw, rip down the 1/2 plywood to width of the size that you want. If you are going to make a few of them I would rip all the plywood

These are nice boxes. There are simpler ways to make them. To begin with any time I need to make something from plywood, I go to Craftwood Lumber in my town. They do all the cutting per specs I give them. And they sell half and quarter sheets.
So someone with few tools need not be discouraged. Simple can be yet simpler and be more accessible.
