That is one fine piece of art. It is not only practical, but beautiful.
I admire your talents and your hard work to create such a work of beauty.
Great job.

Ironically this may be my last post for some months as we are hoping to sell and build a new home whilst living in rented accommodation, if luck is on our side yes I will have workshop space, but? and hopefully internet connection will also be available?

Lovely box, I do like to see some carving on bandsawn boxes. There used to be a fella (could still be there) at the North Pine Markets in Brisbane doing carved bandsawn boxes. Very nice.
Good luck with your move and building, are you owner building or getting it built?
You will have to register at your local library and log on there, or get pre paid dial up at your rental address.

Good luck with the move and building, hope you get an internet connection and a workshop.
