Bloodwood Executive Desk Box
« on: April 22, 2012, 09:47:56 pm »
I found a great buy on Bloodwood at my local Woodcraft store.  The box is 7 inches wide, 9 inches long and 1 inch deep.  Bloodwood is dense, hard on scroll saw blades but takes glue and finishes well.  I used teak oil finish on this on then flocked the inside with a Kelly Green flocking.  The lid has a liner of 1/4 inch thick cedar.
