How big is it?

Opps. Sorry.

It’s about 13.5 wide x 9.5 deep x 5 high

Great start Bill. Another box maker.

Wow, Bill, I can’t wait to see the completed project. You are the finest box make that I know – it will be well worth waiting for, but then as I just love small wooden boxes, I could say that about most.

Looks like the beginnings of another great looking box. I can’t wait to see the finished box.

Bill, I’ve frequently looked at the other two state-fair boxes. Nice of you to give a glimpse of the built for the ‘08 entry. Like the rest of us, I look forward to your next entry.

All,

Thank you so much for the kind remarks. A lot of you have inspired me with your work and especially my good friend Don accross the pond. I’m getting close to cutting the curves and I can’t tell you how stressed I am about it. One side is 13.5 inches so the band saw is out. And with the compound cuts it kind of helps to tape the cutoffs back on. So it will be an interesting evening trying to figure out the safest, accurate and feasible way to do it.

Next pictures coming soon. I’ll just paste them in this thread.

It’s coming out nicely!

Hope your going to give us details of how you manage cutting the curved sides.
I’m planning to make a curvy box some time in the future – any tips you feel like giving will be much appreciated.

A little update on this project…
