Thread: my latest boxes

Very nice work John T

sorry i think i stuffed up with picture sizes i need a few lessons on picture presentation,

rippa work

[the photos look ok]

I particularly like the last one, SUPERB

!!!

They look supurb to me. Great designs and finish. I want to have a go at bandsawn boxes and have a couple of questions if you don't mind.
What size blade did you use for the first box as it has fairly small radii?
What method do you use to round over the edges on the front of the draws and the cavity they fit in to?
Thanks.

hi treecycle,
Thanks for your questions, bandsaw blade is 6mm/8tpi, and i use small router with a round over bit and then i use a 10mm makita right angle drill with a 50mm velcro pad, i cut my velcro paper with a plug cutter i made and it cuts at 53mm so it is bigger than velcro pad i use. john.

Thank you all for your replies, john

Nice work John, they look really good.

Like Ray, I especially like the last one - it has a really good flow to it. Great design

Good to see some action in this forum, too.

Thanks for those answers John. I can't wait until I have some leave over Christmas to get in and have a go.

John

thank you for posting these images.

Your first box is the best. Do you have a name for it? What is the timber, what is its size? Have you made sure you have signed your work?

Love the "leaning Tower", especially, whilst not detracting from the others, they are superb, well balanced
and not too `frilly`.

Thank you all for your words of encouragement i am working on a new design over the christmas i think it will be a suprising design, happy christmas to all forum members. john.

Just saw this! Absolutely fantastic band saw boxes! Stunning craftsmanship and creativity! Nicely executed.
