Another wooden-hinged box in oak

Wow! That is a really nice box. The hinges look great and the oak you used is really a standout! Birdseye Oak top!
One of these days I have to make some wood hinges.

There’s a lot to be said for keeping it natural, Stewart. Especially when backed up by the splendid burr shown here.

Wooden hinges seem to be the ‘new black’ at the moment (lol)

Good post, good project.

Yep, it deserves to be shown off all right. Very nice box you built.

Nicely done. I really like the natural look.

Thanks

That is One COOL BOX!

How did you make those hinges?

Thank you.

Wood is surely a beautiful part of what Mother Nature and a woodworker can showcase, which you’ve done a fine job of it here. Very awesome. Nicely done

Once again your skill & the wood compliment each other beautifully!

Nice Stewart.
It looks both delicate and massive at the same time. How do you do that?

I like it! I just got some old, figured Oak. I was wondering if it would become some boxes. You box gives me some ideas. I don’t usually use Oak for anything but window trim. Nice job.

-- Robert, so much inspiration here, and so little time!
