Thread: My new bandsaw box

Looks superb in form and shaped nicely in a practical sense.

Cheers

Nice design, very pleasing shape and I bet its more than useful.

Only thing that would have made it nicer for me is if the cut to the bottom draw was in line with the other 2 draws, or a second cut on the right to match.

Might be my IT mind that likes symmetry?

Peter

thanks peter for your suggestion the drawing has been changed

Looks absolutely fantastic

Beautiful work.....Huon......should have realised......you're in Deloraine...I wish Huon was easier to get in quantities here in Qld....... as it is in Tassie.

Am heading past your neck of the woods next month. May have to sniff out some suppliers that can send Huon to Brisbane

I know of a couple in Strahan & there used to be another one south of Stanley but not sure if they are still open.

Any suggestions across the North of Tassie for Huon supplies ?

Sorry Bigshed that was my assistant I will have to pay more attention,
Thank you to all those who commented on my work its nice to get some feed back,
Hi Skot give me a pm when you arrive in tassi and I will see if I can find a source for you. I think maybe Bradshaws in queenstown might be your best bet, john.

Do I like it? NO, I love it, great work.

It's all been said but I'd like to add my appreciation for this most beautiful work, sir.....cheers crowie

I do like it and judging by the comments and likes a fair amount of other people also like it.

Would have guessed it only an IT person would look for symmetry. Where would we be if we did not have IT in our lives? For one thing I would not be employed? I have to agree with Fly on this comment.

How long did it take to make it? Did you mark out the design before cutting?

Hi christos,
Just a paper copy, from glue up time I think 12 hours including flocking a good 1/4" x8tpi blade or 1/8th blade john.

I somehow missed this box looks fantastic to me very well executed and finished

Hey, great looking bandsawn box! Wish I lived in Tas.what great timber you have down there! Could I ask where you got the design, or was it an original?
Cheers

hi d cooper
I got the drawing f rom a friend but not sure where he found it, but I made a few copies for future when next time I will use blackheart sassafas john.
