Box for CD's & Bits 'n Pieces
Hi all!
I had a need (read instruction from my better half!) to tidy up my mess of CD's so I put this together... It measures 405w x 295h x 255 d and was made from Tassie Hardwood with the drawer sides in Chinese Oak. Finish is just two coats of polyurethane...
Thoughts?

Beautifully contained box well proportioned in itself, great detail with the dovetails and finish
, but for me I would like the drawer pulls a bit smaller......matter of opinion though?

I agree entirely about the drawer pulls being too big for this box. I's been bugging from the start and I'm going to replace them with much smaller ones... Thanks for the thoughts...

Very nice indeed. I love the use of half blind dovetails as an external feature. I might incorporate that in one of my projects one day.
