    Very nice work - I must get back and do some more myself! You have achieved a lovely finish on them too.
    They are so much fun to make I 'recon.
    Keep up the great work

    They look great John. When I first saw the photos (very small on my phone) I didn't think that the edges were rounded enough ....... but now I have seen them on a larger screen I can see that they have a good level of rounding.

    I especially like the two towers boxes. Looking at these I need to get my garage set up so I can get back into it!

    They're some really nice looking boxes John, lot of hours of hand sanding.
    I agree with SS, the 2 tower boxes would be my favorites.

    Dear John,

    Very nice work; I too like the matched tower boxes. What finish did you use. I'll look forward to seeing more.

    Cheers
