Box trio

Project by Zipsss posted 803 days ago 565 views 0 times favorited 9 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Some boxes that were made some years ago. In the third one I incorporate stained glass on the sides, the handle is a leftover piece of burl. The first one was done with leftover of walnut and maple. The second one is bandsaw from a burl that I found in a hike in the Delaware Gap, PA. side.

Hey Zipsss, I just love small wooden boxes. I love it if you could re-size the first picture so we can get a better look at the trio. Whats that on the lid of the middle box in the first picture. It might be a handle, or is it simply an interesting hunk of wood sitting on the box? Of all the boxes I’ve made, I’ve never tried a bandsaw box.

Very nice work…I really like the design of the first one…just wish there were more pics of it. I’d love to see it from a couple different angles. Also, very cool incorporation of the stained glass.
