Popular Post Dave Monk Posted December 16, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 A client commissioned me to make this box for her son for Christmas. The family is from Scotland where they still have family. The son started college at OU. An uncle that lives in Scotland made the young man the OU from a tree that was in their yard. My client wanted me it incorporate it into the box. From there her son transferred to the Louisiana Warhawks where he was a was their football kicker. He has since graduated and my client was wanting it to put the memorabilia she had collected during his college career. Box measures 15 1/2 x 12 1/2 x 8. Wood used maple, Peruvian walnut, padauk, sapele, and tigerwood. meflick, OCtoolguy, Karl S and 15 others 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made the pattern and just figured it out myself. If you are interested in trying it message me and I will try to explain it to you.
