Memory box
« on: March 18, 2012, 09:06:58 am »
This is a version of Steve's wedding box, featured last year on his blog. I modified it to make a memory box for my wife for her birthday. It is made of Oak and Padruk, it is finished with two coats of tung oil. There is no metal or glue on this piece, remove the wooden pins at the sides and it comes apart. Thanks Ms N for the monogram on the front. The roses on top are from a pattern out of a SSWC magazine. She was very pleased :-[ ;D ;D

Very nicely done.  Like the idea of no metal.  The wood is beautiful and matches, or contrasts, quite well.

My compliments on a job well done.
