Southwest Style Wood Hinged Box.

[Dave Monk]

Made using maple, alder and Peruvian walnut.  Dovetails all done on my scroll saw.

Ohhh southwest design.

That is better than the love bus.

The light brown dove tails look pretty tricky. 

How many did you throw out?

It isn't really that tricky, just takes time. Inlay a piece of alder first then come back and inlay the peruvian walnut.

Takes no more patients than the painting of the cats you just did.

Never thought about it. I feel rewarded when a person buys one of my pieced at a show.

Thanks for the kind comments.  The hardest part of the project for me was making the hinges. Getting the hinge pin holes in the perfect spot was a challenge. 

[Blaughn]

That is truly a work of art!  I am in awe!!!
