p.t.c.
Each have great potential.
Where did you source that size block of sassafras, very difficult to find good sassafras this far north, a great timber to work with - very rewarding.

Hi PTC The design is great and the wood you have selected should give you lovely boxes.When I make the handles I try to get the pointed end of the handle to follow to the pointed end of the draw. I think it is a crime having eucalpt burl in the fire wood heap Don Mc.
