THE EAR OF THE DOG THE EAR OF THE DOG No-picture-s Click the pictures to enlarge them

Three native Australian Eucalypts make up this small box. The sides are Lacy Sheoak. The “ears” and lid-trim are Silky Oak and the lid is Australian Blackbutt. This box is a convenient overnight storage container for rings and watches.

Again I acknowledge the designer of this unusually shaped creation, Tony Lydgate, the award winning New England decorative box maker.

It was early box making days for me, so I had not yet ventured into my own designs.

This is real lovely. I found it using the shuffle feature. Otherwise I would probably never have found it. Thanks for sharing it.

Well Don another of the early postings that got no response. I think we have gotten a lot more friendlier lately.

Great design even if it’s someone else’s design. Great project.

I have spent a few evenings digging into the project list but I have to say this new “shuffle” button is just wonderful for bringing these pieces back out into the open. I spent quite a while looking at Don’s projects and never even noticed this gem. Great stuff as always Don.

We have the shuffle thing going tonight.

This is really a cool piece. Love the wood’s deformities, they highlight the lid on this box. Great woodworking Don.
