    Default The Wavy Box

    I call it that because of the flowing curves and indentations through out the box. It's also a good way to fix the tearout from the eyes when thickness planing. I started on this design with a smaller pine box and it looked good so I planned for this box using birdseye maple and walnut. It turned out pretty good.

    Sigh. Another artist raising the bar for the rest of us. Never thought I would see a bird'seye maple project that looked good.

    I love it

    Regular geometric shapes have their place and look nice but this is a welcome change!

    Cheers,

    Welcome to the forum. Very nice looking box - a change from the usual squared edges.

    Great looking box and clever design. Any chance of seeing the interior?

    I'd show the inside but it's nothing to sneeze at, just a little poly, no lining. Thanks for all the comments.
