Scrap Box? I don't think so.

A really kool lil box Jay. The wood combos are very nice together. I do like the handle also. I was expecting “Thing” from the Adams Family to come out and pay us a visit. :)

Great little box, well done. In my shop there is no such thing as scrap wood, unless it is saw dust or wood chips, & I even use those. I save everything for future use somewhere. Nice box.

I like the handle as well. Really like the wood grain. Is that normal sycamore?

Monte———-yes, that is what “normal” sycamore looks like. Its a beautiful semi-soft wood that is great to work with.

Sycamore smells so great when cut too. And you are right, soft texture. Love it.

Jay the box is great but the handle is exquisite!! Beautifull composition.

Nice ! Makes me want to get my hands on some sycamore !

I have never worked with Sycamore before perhaps I should try it!

After reading this post

I don’t know if I want to take a chance on Sycamore as ErikF seemed to have some severe issues and so did some others in that forum.

oldnovice—-yeah I read that and feel for him. Fortuanately, I have never had any problems with any woods I have used.

jaykaypur,

I had a reaction to something in my workshop back in Illinois but I never tracked it down to any wood specific species and it was not as bad as ErikF!

I know a lot of the exotic woods can have some toxicity issues but I never thought that domestics woods could be that bad!
