boxes seem to be my thing. I always find myself building them for as long as I am woodworking. I always knew that boxes are the foundation of basic woodwork. with boxes you can make Cabinets, tables, chairs... etc.
here is my latest build. an record LP(long playing) box.
still without a bottom, decided to pop the grain with oil before poly can be applied.
