looks good for a 1st box. if you had access to a belt sander you could really clean it up. i notice your cuts are off just a bit, did cut the wood yourself?

He already has straight cuts and wood glue, without the screw he wouldn't HAVE splits.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

good first box. Take your time, lose the screws, and you'll be good to go.
