Great gift – no wonder she liked it. The wood burning is very finely done.

Absolutely excellent. Great design and very well done.

Beautiful box, I like the way the purpleheart contrasts with the maple. How did you get the curved shape on the sides? What are the dimensions?

Thanks,
Michael

Thanks for the nice comments!
Kaytrim – I made the concave curves on the side of the box and the side of the base by running it over the table saw blade at an angle repeatedly. The convex curve on the side of the box was done with a router bit. I don’t remember the exact dimensions, but it’s a about 8 inches wide X 5 deep X 4 or 5 high.

beautifully done! How could your girlfriend help but love it. I really like the choice of woods and contrasts they create.

Thanks for posting it.

Great job on the box and the woodburning looks like a lot of time was involved. I guess you didn’t start this on the first of Dec.
