My boxes

[GECKO]

The only drawback to smaller items is that it's much harder to show off figure. Great job in a small space there.

Thanks.

So here is the box I was waiting on. It is made from plum wood. The dimensions are 5 1/8” x 3 7/8” x 3”tall overall. Finished with a heavy coat of shellac and buffed out with 0000 steel wool.
The thing about this box is I saw someone offering small plumb wood limbs. I went and took it all and dried it. One of the things I do when I get free wood is to make a box out of it and give it to person. People like that.
The problem arose because I love this the look of this box. I hate to send it away. Thank goodness I still have more of it. View attachment 291944View attachment 291945View attachment 291946View attachment 291947View attachment 291948

Ah. I like it. I find the more simple shapes show more complex woods better. I do find that this one looks “visually top heavy” if you know what I mean. Probably a product of those massive hinges. The box is very good though.
