This is a nice looking box. Personally, I would prefer a handle made of wood - but that is just me.

This is a nice looking box. I like the handle it gives it a different look.
Did you do this on the band saw ?

Nice box!!! Hard to go wrong with walnut of this quality but you did a great job. I like the execution of the top with the rabbeted ledge onto which the top sets. I'm so-so regarding the pull - it is different which is a good thing, but it is different which is also a not-so-good thing. That was certainly a nice piece of walnut you worked with and your finishing really brings out the excellent qualities of the piece. In the second picture, it appears that the back side to bottom intersection is rounded and I don't see a line. Did you perhaps rout the interior of the box?

I like it!

Fantastic box. You did a great job of bringing the charector of the walnut out. Nice design and finish also.

Keep it up.

This is a beautiful box. Walnut is such a beautiful wood and you certainly had a nice piece to work with.

Very nice box…..it appears that you cut off the top and then hollowed out the interior? It looks very much like a bandsaw box without the glue seams. It turned out very nice and the finish is great….excellent job.

Welcome to LJ's and thanks for sharing your project with us.
