Windmill

sure like the shapes on the lid & the colors, and the way you postioned then at an angle.

Very unique artistic design, nice job, I need to get conversion minded to perceive size, it’s a big world out there, thanks for sharing

-- It's Mic Keep working and sharing

Itsmic, its 4” x 4” x 2”, 1/4” thick walls. Sorry forgot to put the conversion up.

Ken, alls well. Snow gone, rain as usual and work sucks.

Martyn,
Another thoughtful piece. The tasteful combination of ebony and rosewood contrasts nicely with the symbolism of the lid pattern. Do all your boxes have “intellectual content” in addition to your fine craftsmanship?

Another beautiful piece, Martyn! I bet the rosewood is stunning in person. Very lovely!

Hey Martyn,
That’s nice. Up to your usual standards.
Keeping it simple and nice with this one. I like it.

So windmills are a bit controversial, eh?

Nice Martyn.

I love the way you’ve taken simple elements, and turned them into a work of art just by some imaginative positioning.

Steve. Yes, being a small country if you try and do anything in the countryside some joker will complain. Probably the same one that complains when the power cuts arrive due to lack of power generation infrastructure.

Charlie, less is more sometimes.

Thanks all again for the much appreciated support.

Great box, Martyn! Thanks for showing it.

I like the way you offset the pattern in the lid, if you had squared it up it would have been a good piece but lacking pizazz! Well done!

Very nice box and the lid is colorful and nice to look at Martyn. As for the windmills, the controversy just proves that there is no such thing as a free lunch. We have the very same problem with windmills here. Environmentalists meeting each other in the door if you ask me. We all mean well. we just don’t know what we are doing, at least I don’t.
