Small gift fret boxes

[munzieb]

Wanted to make some small gift boxes and ordered some mahogony. 6 each 24 x 4" 1/8" boards (should have ordered 5-6" wide boards to better fit pattern). Stack cut 2 at a time. finish with gloss laquer. I had done the 2 center boxes with bubinga wood previously  but it is getting very expensive. (twice as expensive as mahogony) Fun cutting.

Nice projects. I have cut several fret boxes in the past and also enjoyed the outcome. Of course, you always do such a wonderful job on your scroll saw work. they look great.

Thanks Dick I always appreciate you kind comments. I just finished up some more moulding boxes but my wife still needs to paint them. I'll post them when she is done. I'm starting to feel a little boxed in.

I have cut several ornate boxes and I love those patterns but they are not very exciting to most that see them. Makes me wonder if they might be a little outdated or something, like all the beautiful ornate fret clocks. People like how they look but they really seem to not want them themselves.

I got 7 of my boxes put into the scroll saw magazine several years ago. That made me feel sort of special
