Wooden Box

[littlecope]

The Box got the treatment and that Tiger Wood never fails to impress! After the Poly is applied, I go over the Box with a Scotch-brite Pad and then apply clear Furniture Polish... It gives it a "slippery" feel, and helps to mellow that strong Poly Smell...

A Tray was added inside...

It is a good-sized Box, 10 1/2" x 6 1/2" x 5"... 

Woods used were: Tiger Wood for the sides, Ash for the top and bottom panels, Mahogany 'hardware', Chestnut for the Tray brackets, Red Oak for the Tray sides and Pine for the Tray Bottom... The doweling used to hold the Box together was store-bought Poplar...

Over the Years, I've found that some Projects seem to WANT to be made and come together easily, while others do not, and fight tooth and nail to get accomplished! This Box 'wanted' to be and made a very enjoyable time of it!

As always, Thank You for your Time! Any questions, comments (or even criticism!) are Welcome...
