Project Information

This is the first project I ever did other than making picture frames. It took a while to do, but I was happy with the end result. Make of padauk and ash. Had a bit of a learning experience with making the box joints…lots of trial and error. I think I was most happy with the alternating wood for the lip of the box…this actually was created to fix a mistake. Made a great present for a great friend.

Great looking box. Fantastic first! Keep it around so you can see just how much your skills improve over time. (Everyone can improve, But you are off to a good start.

BTW There are no mistakes in woodworking, only "Mid Process Design Changes" haha

Looks great. Keep it up.

Very Nice. We all do things to cover up errors but somehow they turn out being neater that if we left it plain, Good job on that one. We look for more projects to come!!!!!!!!
