Thanks for the comments everyone. I do enjoy making the boxes and they seem to be appreciated by the recipients.

JC, I looked at your projects, you do some nice work. I particularly like your veneers and inlays. I’m looking forward to your new posts.

The Spalted lid really adds alot to this piece.
