Boxes and leftovers

While everyone loves to build the next huge thing, the smaller projects are so awesome because they cost so little to build, but can easily show off the skill of the craftsman, which you’ve done beautifully!

Beautiful ! Oh to have the patience, not only to do the work but to also to plan the work!!

Wow, Very nice work.

Stunning! These valet boxes (guys jewelry box) are just awesome. Love your choice of contrasting woods and the use of the splines. Books like “400 Boxes” are the best. You can get so many great ideas and inspirations from them and then just let your imagination, talent and skills go wild. I especially like how you beveled the outer left and right edges of the drawers to make their intersection with the carcass appear almost seamless from the front. Very nice touch.

Really excellent looking boxes, real craftsmanship here.

measure1_cut2,
Really nice boxes! Did you save anytime by doing both boxes at the same time? The multiple wood uses are just great. I’m sure the boys are most proud of these. I’ve got three sons and when I have to make the multiple projects, I’ve started making them all identical. Congratulations on an excellent build again.

Sincerely,

Nice boxes. The wood choices are great! Would like to know the dimensions along with the stock thickness and also how you did the feet. I have been asked to make a box for a 1911 and these look like what I’m after. If you have any plans, are they available?

Really nice boxes!!!
