    Default Walnut box with banding inlay

    My first attempt at using a decorative banding inlay strip. The box is walnut, and I think the panel is olive.

    Cheers,

    ajw

    The walnut and olive combination looks great. I do like the inlay, it really enhances the lid. Do you have a picture of the box with the lid open?
    And my head I'd be a scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.

    Very good. Love the grain on the lid, looks almost like a landscape picture.

    You've done great as usual mate

    Nice clean inlay, well done.

    How do you find working with walnut? I'm about to use it on a box also.

    Hi Andy - I like working with walnut. It machines easily and finishes really nicely. Can have a tendency to splinter a bit, but I sandwich it between two off-cuts when I'm cross-cutting it, and that works well.

    Sorry - don't have a photo with the box open.

    cheers,

    ajw

    Nice work. the inlay really works well with the chosen timber. I have a strip of inlay I bought from Brisbane timber show about 3 years ago and haven't got round to using it yet.
    Reality is no background music.
    Cheers John
