Here’s a Christmas gift for a name I drew for this next Christmas.
It’s made from walnut cutoffs from past projects and finished with 3 coats of clear gloss lacquer.

Nice work. I particularly like the statement the grain makes in the lid.

Yeoh Zer, that is some gorgeous wood, and fine craftsmanship to bring out its best. Someone's going to have a very Merry Christmas.

That's a beautiful piece, someone is going ot be delighted.
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

Thanks for all the comments. It actually went together pretty easy. Hardest part was figuring out how to use the pieces to get the best look. I only had those pieces to work with so if I messed up there wasn't going to be the box I envisioned.
