Sliding Lid Boxes

David these are nice – I like the contrast. What finish did you use on the goncaloe?

Doc – you didn’t waste any time before making a comment!
The finish is 6 coats tung oil after sanding to 240 grit and using sanding sealer.

Beautiful little boxes, David.

Hi David,

These are gorgeous boxes. I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite between the three. I can well understand why you are enamored with making boxes. Like turning, once you get started on this path it is difficult to get off.

Thanks for the inspiration and the post.

Very nice collection of some finely crafted boxes. I am sure the recipients wil be very happy!

God Bless,

Beautiful work!....I would like to see how you make them.

-- Can't never could do anything, to try is to advance.

Great boxes. I like the sliding dovetail tops. Great woods too…
