Very very nice CH I guess with putting everything on here you can always go back to it. I don't know with you but with me once something is delivered, thats it, move on to the next piece and forget about those previous ones very quickly no matter how special.
Is that a small oval badge on the bottom of the front ?

Re: Chest blanket box WIP
Breathtaking work. Beautiful figure on the top. A quality to aspire to from this new wood worker.

Hey guys thank you for all the kind words
. Wallnut, simply glued and screwed, nothing fancy. I use Robertson square drive screws which hang on very well. The Camphor is a little muted at the moment Nick but long term it will be back. Did the top with 0000steel wool and wax this morning just to get rid of any little bumps and put a nice finish on, took a few more detail and outside shots too.

CH did the mango come from Mal?

"If a man is after money, he's money mad; if he keeps it, he's a capitalist; if he spends it, he's a playboy; if he doesn't get it, he's a never-do-well; if he doesn't try to get it, he lacks ambition. If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

Nick you useless bugger
, why didn't you tell me about the tassle before, I have been trying to think what I could put on it. Too late now though they are here shortly to pick it up.
Yes Mango was from Mal. Rang him and said I need a cool piece of Mango and I need it now and it appeared

...
at least two and a half hours before your clients were to turn up
to be truthful - only came to me when I saw the piccy showing key in the lock - thought it needed something.
The other option is a turned bauble and a bit of chain
I agree the figure and fiddleback in that lid are totally awesome !! Originally Posted by wun4us
