Latest Box

[Halfathumb]

I put up a thread a couple months ago, asking if anyone had seen a piece of wood with what looked like stains from the bark before.  There were a few comments but...  I said I would make something from it.

I made a box for my daughter, and took my time to make it special.  I finger jointed mahogany to make the "box" and framed the walnut with the "dragon scales" in black walnut.  I made the interior tray from mahogany as well.  I wanted the tray to be a special accent.

Here is the box.


Open the box and you see the custom tray with a bottom made from mahogany, with knotty pine and purplewood bottom inlaid.


With the tray removed, you can see the flocked bottom.

Fine piece of work and craftsmanship! Bravo! Quite creative
