That bookmatched top really stands out. It creates a flow for the entire piece. I think those hinges are sweet too!
Thanks for sharing.
Well done.

Ian,
Wow. A crisp, super clean box design. As always, your box is flawlessly executed. I also really like the scalloped tray dividers. I always struggle to come up with something interesting to do with the trays. And, always, how do you pick them up? Anyway, I love these. The simple walnut line is perfect, as with the repetition on the lock escutcheon. While our styles may differ, that doesn’t mean that I can’t admire yours. Nicely done indeed. I always look forward to your next post.

Very nice Ian.
Lots of sweet features in there.

I guess those hinges hold fast using an MDF core. I have not had luck getting screws to hold.

Good job,
Steve

Thanks Guys

Roger – the tray is just lifted by one of the dividers.

Steve – the screws go through solid sycamore as I have created a MDF/Sycamore sandwich, so that when I separate the box lid and base it shows solid wood at the separation and saves me having to lip the inner edged.

Cheers
