Wow – I now have a much better appreciation for Spanish Cedar. Your box is outstanding. Well constructed and very interesting lines. The splined miters are an added attraction.

Very nice! I especially like the handles on the drawers. I’m sure the hamster is spoiled. I hope he realizes how lucky he is to live in that box.

Very nice! I would have liked a picture of the inside of a drawer.

Welcome back! Very nice project. What did you do with the drawers? Any dividers?

Mike- Love the design. How are the drawer pulls made? Are those metal (aluminum/brass?) rods for spacers? Were they glued (CA?)?

Also, the inlaid pieces next to each drawer—are these purely decorative or the fronts to drawer glides?

I’d love to hear more about it if you care to!

Thanks!

Beautiful Mike. I like the way the handles mirror the curve of the apron.

I’m with you on the hamster smell though. Everytime I smell cedar I think of my brother’s “pet” – nasty little creature!

I must be part hamster.
Welcome back Mike – you’re back with a vengeance and a design eye that is unique and enviable.

Mike, that’s pretty cool. You got some vision going on there.

You took a chance with that bevel and it paid off. I like your style. Sorry for the 2x, I ended up coming back for another look.

Cool box. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone chamfer a mitred spline before. Innovative and looks great!
