Nice one! Thanks for sharing this great resource of info. I am also doing some woodworking projects and I found this to be very interesting.

Great job Darrel! I love the figuring displayed in the third photo. That glow is what we all chase when finishing a project. Keep up the great work.

Curly mahogany is not easy to get were I am, is it quarter sawed? I am sure your father in law will like it.

Great looking box. How did you shape the ends? and what are the dimensions?

All in all Fantastic box!

Keep it up.

Darrell, very nice work. I really like this plan and have done a number of them too. It comes from Woodsmith Magazine Volume 29. No. 174.

Your father-in-law will love it.

Thanks for posting it.

I really like the clean lines of this box. How did you ebonize the sides?

-- Keith, Bolingbrook, Illinois. How did you do that? I just started with a bunch of wood and cut away anything that's not part of the finished piece...

I used black indigo ink. I got it from a local craft store. I did not cut it with anything – just straight out of the bottle. Once I had applied it I used a simple sponge brush to spread it around.
