Cup-O-Coffee Box
« on: May 17, 2013, 01:23:30 pm »
This box sold at my show last month so i made a replacement one.  The cup is made from Walnut with Purple heart and White Veneer.  The lid is made from White Oak and the Steam is Aspen.  My next show is May 26th, a lot of people really liked this one, so I'm hopin' someone will but this one too,.

Thanks for Lookin'

Slick. Is it rude to ask what it sold for?

I got some filet knives from knifekits.com and finished one yesterday - I think they'll be popular here. We have lots of avid fishermen.

E....I got $45.00 for it.  The lady that bought it didn't flinch in the least at the price.  It's a nice piece, but I think the uniqueness of it is what sells it,

That is a very cool box Tommy.  No wonder it sold.  Thanks for sharing it with us.

Great work! After it is cured, it would be a cool idea to store coffee grounds in one.

$45 for a cup'o'coffee? You're my new hero. At that rate you should have "Starbucks" inlaid on the outside and "Jameson" on the inside!
