    Default Segmented oval cedar lidded box

    This box with lid is made from recycled cedar wood from discarded garden furniture. Had quite a lot of work to clean this wood.
    My motto, use good wood, let it not end up in a landfill.
    Dimensions, axis size 200x165 mm height 77 mm.
    Finished with two layers acrylic lacquer.
    Cheers, Ad

    nice work ad
    a question ?? was the wood just old and grey looking from being weathered ????
    if it was try this method ( not sure what you have over there to this product )
    try using some NAPISAN and water to clean it up from the dull grey to new again , i seen that done on some old cane furniture last weekend super quick and and easy
