    Default satinwood box

    Hi guys,
    There have been a few boxes made lately , so I thought
    I would give it go, I had a nice piece of ceylon satinwood
    Just the right size for a box , when It was finished I
    thought it needed something more so i added an ebony
    insert on the top,
    any comments and advice welcome as always
