Clayton717 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 I have been able to spend quite a bit of time in the shop this last week and most of the weekend. Working on a large Christmas order for friends in Tennessee. I'm making sure it's done ahead of time as we are going there for thanksgiving and will be taking it all with us. She ordered these four boxes are for her granddaughters. They are cut from box elder and cherry. She also wanted a box for her grandson for his lego people. This one is made from maple and purpleheart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 The flamed elder is one of my favorite woods. Very pretty boxes. I'm sure they will all be very pleased. Clayton717 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson's Woodworking Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 I love the flaming box elder and these boxes really look great made out of it! It gives me some ideas for some pieces I resawed out of a friend’s tree. Thanks for sharing!!!! Clayton717 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your friend will be very happy with her order. :thumbs: Marg Clayton717 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
