They are stunning boxes. Some beautiful wood and the finish has really made them standout.
And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.

Was it difficult to keep track of the parts with the two builds?

[QUOTE=Billyboydes;1622936]Firstly Ross, the burl is sanded down to 6mm and inserted in the glued mitered 'picture frame' which is inserted in the sides. The trim is only 4mm deep so there are not 2 frames at all. The top is not glued in but 'floats' in the sides.
Thanks Billy, now I understand, Ross

I agree with the others - a beautiful set and only something I can aspire to. Having tinkered with 'boxes' I understand the huge effort to get such harmony - for me even to get the bits to fit is an achievement !
