This cigar box was made for a buddy of mine . The finger joints were made on a saw sled . The wood is oak paduk birdseye maple and walnut . The wood hinge was made with maple . The inside is lined with spanish cedar (sorry no inside shots ) . This was sprayed with canned poly about 4 coats. The joints on this box is one of the best ive done to date .

Jimboe,
This is a very nice box. I, like the others, really appreciate the wood combination used on the lid. The hinges are cools as well.
Thanks for the post.
