Scrappile Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 More beautiful boxes... Very nice work. When you say buff, do you buff them with a buffing wheel. Nothing looks much richer than wood buffed... Ron Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 You are truly an artist with wood. Even if I could dream up these great ideas that you manifest, I am not even close to having the skills you possess. I have never seen any boxes that have this uniqueness. They absolutely gorgeous and of course, made only as you can make them. Dick heppnerguy Ron Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One or two hours...LOL just kidding. Each box varies as to when one is completed. Some will take a matter of ten to fifteen hours where others can take a few weeks. I think most of my time is spent thinking of a design that will look good and is different. I have no dead lines to meet so time really dosen't matter. What matters the most is that at the end I'm satisfied. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
