    Default Document Box just finished

    I made my first box over xmas, along with other things. It's for me for a change, hope you like it. Made from red gum, silky oak and purple heart with felt inside. I used a Neil Scobie design from an old mag. Here are the picks with some wip pics also.

    Looks great!

    The purple is a bit of a shock though. Very cool

    Cheers,

    Well done! Definite Chinese styling which suits the chosen timbers.

    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    Regards, Woodwould.

    Mm. Very nice.
