Soap dish and basket
« on: December 21, 2014, 06:15:33 pm »
These are two of Steve's patterns I've done in the past couple of weeks.

The woven basket is walnut and alder (for the weave).
The soap dish is maple and Brazilian cherry.

The basket has shellac spray for the finish.  The soap dish has none.

If you make the soap dish you will have to sand the slats down to match the top of the side pieces.

Karl,
Both projects are very nice. I especially like the woven basket. I can only imagine the patience necessary for such a project. You obviously have both patience and an eye for quality.
