Superior boxhood, Greg. I think the variable spline lengths give this a retro feel. I like the feet, the inlay glue up and the lift tab. I think you should even get a extra free “doghouse pass” for this one.

She’s a beauty! Nice work.

Very nice.

WOW Greg that box looks great. An excellent choice of woods. The colors are great and I really like the highlights in padauk.

Very nice project! If you don’t mind I may copy the design. What kind of wood is the red

-- Your not a true woodworker until you blow your nose and saw dust comes out! (WoodWorker Rule)

Thanks, The main wood is Lacewood, the dark accent wood is Wenge and the reddish wood is Padauk. Remember that the Padauk will darken and turn more brown over time, which is ok in this project. On the inside, the dividers are made from Wenge, the tray bottoms are Ambrosia Maple and the bottom is Sapel. The bottom is solid wood so it sits loosely in a grove in the bottom (just like a raised panel would in a door.)

Please feel free to use the design, this is a design in progress for me. I will probably make a few changes on future versions.

This is a great box!

-- Remember, measure twice, cut once
