And like @KingBowzer I finally finished up and got some pictures of the latest box I made. My wife immediately claimed it and of course I explained that I had made it for her. Box body made from @FranklinWorkshops curly maple, lid made from quilted BLM from @Mike1950 and walnut trim and tray from @Eric Rorabaugh. Green flocking applied to tray interior and the top bottom. 1/4" walnut dowels for splines @ 45°

Wow Barry- really well executed design, craftsmanship and consistent selection of quality of material- she is going to love it! The other really cool part is the wood elements came from the fine members here at WB. :good2:

Very nice box! You made the right call telling her you made it for her. Even though I know you were sending it to me. :sarcastic:

Your wife will be excited to get this box because it’s both nicely done and hand made by you. Great job.
