    Default WIP Money Box

    I decided that I need something bigger to keep my spare change. I think that this will do, the wood is Myrtle with a burll insert in the lid and Huon Pins stringing. All I have to do now is to sand it build a stand, I am in two minds whether to put a spline in the corners of the lid fit a plinth the lock and a tassilated key (always wanted a tassilated key)
    Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I´m not so sure about the universe.

    Nice looking box. How much loose change do you have? - looks big enough to be a treasure chest - you'd better keep the key in a safe place!

    You saving up for some more tools?

    If you have that much change than perhaps you could share some of it around?

    Nice looking box, looking forward to seeing the finished work.

    Nice work.

    "tassilated key" sure you dont mean Tessellated?
    How would you make a key thats tessellated?

    Tessellated= "In short, a tessellation is any repeating pattern of interlocking shapes. Tessellations are also sometimes known as tilings, but the word "tilings" usually refers to patterns of polygons (i.e., shapes with straight boundaries), which is a more restrictive category of repeating patterns."
