Re: 5 Boxes - delivered on time.

thanks Rosy and Jarod.

@Jarod: This is indeed quite a challenge doing uniform projects in woodworking though this is not new to me anymore ever since i completed my dining chairs project. Repeatability is not a problem.

I forgot to mention the size of the box is 4" x 9" x 14". moving up from the 3.5" x 8" x 12" size that i usually do. The body of the boxes were not stained it's just the BLO that enhanced the color.

Re: 5 Boxes - delivered on time.

Very very nice.

I've always dreamed of making a jewelry box for SWMBO but hesitated for 2 reasons:

1. I don't have the tiyaga
2. She might ask me to fill it up

Re: 5 Boxes - delivered on time.

Hi Armand, those are works of art. Been watching works here in PHM for quite sometime and only recently had the time to indulge myself into creating something and it's been fun. It'll be more fun if I can create things with of that beauty.
