Nice work.

Making Bandsawn boxes proves there is really nothing that can be called scrap, anymore!

Looking forward to see what you will do with the No. 9 Sassafras!

Hi PTC

These boxes are great!!!!!! I love "The Cave". It really lives up to its name. Glad to hear your back is getting better.

Beautiful boxes, PTC. The finish on the huon is superb, and the roughness of the burl voids is a nice contrast.

Is that an entry cut I can see on the huon? Are these supposed to be invisisle? Just asking, 'cos I don't know: it's not a comment or criticism.

The entry cut, some Glue it others leave it. Cum See - Cum Sa.
Glueing it up puts a strain 0n the body of box,as the huon was only partly dry i decided to leave it open.

Pete.
yes.
got the book from local library, its now on its way to next borrower.
i thought it was good, but my boxes will be all one piece.
Do not have planer.

Now I get it!!!;) Wasn't game to ask for fear of looking like proper idiot! Love the boxes - this style gives enormous style/shape possibilities. Will have to find out more about it - like how you hollow the drawers ????????:o
