Wife's Xmas present - Silver Ash/Wenge
Can't keep track of all that's going on, being pulled in several different directions, but as the man in the red suit will be coming soon, I thought I had better get cracking. I want to finish both before Xmas, this and the starburst.

The box is actually on my sanding board, a 35mm thick jointed flat piece of 300 wide Blackbutt, nice and solid covered with 150grit paper. It does an awesome job of mating lid to base
