    Default 3 Little boxes

    Latest efforts from the Rose Engine

    African Backwood; Arjan; Cocobolo. Ivory finials & spots. (took longer to turn down the pegs for the spots than to make the boxes!)


    All 3 have Boxwood liners.

    Nicely done. Like the finials, especially the spiral one. Approximately how big are the boxes? Tried to guess from the tiles but realized they may be different than the ones we have.

    Pete - the tallest is 3" high.
    The spiral finials are easy using a small fly-cutter, dividing either with a rosette or the division plate. The hollow finial took a while to make, hollowed through a 1/4" hole in the base, then perforated.
