Project Information

Another Palm Box, this one is bubinga with a highly figured piece of myrtlewood for the lid.
The finish is Deft lacquer, the lining is a piece of fabric from an old Disco outfit. Not really, but it wasnt a good choice. The jewelry is something I got my wife from one of those machines at a pizza parlor, the one that takes two quarters and has the crane with a claw that drops down and comes up empty most of the time. Well, I got this :)

Your palm boxes look great Andy. They would make great gifts for Christmas and could be used to store a lot of different things.

Your finishes bring out the best in the woods you use. I would love to learn to apply finishes the way you do.

Andy, I love the palm boxes. I tried to make my first box yesterday and learned some things, but don't think I even want to post pictures on here. Any chance of you posting some directions for my skill building?

Andy, this is really nice. Another simple beauty and it truly does invite someone to just "pick it up and hold it".
Great tutorial as always, I bet you are going to now see alot of these "mini Andy" boxes here on LJ's.

I love Davids comment Andy Dandy this might even catch on !
