I just commented on your fire truck and then up pops another master piece! I need to get busy too but my 1/8" blade broke so I need to order another one. Your pieces are inspiring! Love them!

I'm lucky I have a local woodcraft store and a local blade maker, I normally use the blade maker I find his a very great price and they are just as good as the name brand blades plus he's closer to me. :)

Thanks woodshaver

Randy, That is way cool. I really like the design and of course the spalted hackberry and the secret drawer make it very special. How did you finish it? My spalted hackberry soaks up finish like a sponge!

Hi Andy the finish I used was something that donna introduced to me called General finishes Arm-R-Seal oil and urethane topcoat gloss.

That's very nice! I really like the top tray idea. I don't think I've seen anyone do that before. Excellent.. Just excellent..

This is way kool. Did you rout the top tray out, or what? Nice design. Your boxes are awesome

I like this even more than the truck. This has a more universal and 'grown-up' appeal. I think you could play with this concept a lot. I would think there are lots of fellows who would like this idea of a 'jewelry box' for guys. Someplace to drop their change and watch and keep a few pieces of jewelry too.
I'd like to see dimensions when you put up photos of your new boxes. Like for this one I'm not sure if you could make shallower drawers in the height you have here. I like shallow drawers so that you can see everything in them without pawing through everything.
Great job.

Roger no routing was done just a matter of cuts and gluing the front and back on to form the tray, both the front and back was cut first before bandsawing.
