Selection of Boxes

Postby Dalboy » 05 Apr 2019, 18:46

Well at this stage one at least but as I am going to make a few over the next week or so I decided to post them here as I make them.

Today's effort is Laburnum finished with sander sealer and woodwax22, I would have done more but I stopped to cook the wife a meal for a change. And yes she is still alive :lol: :lol: :lol:

Also I have included a photo of the ones from yesterday with the lids off

Thanks for sharing Derek. I’ve not had mush time for turning of late but the sash of suitable woood is growing. I’ve some nice pieces rady for some pots like that but I doubt they will be as nice.
I do not think therefore I do not am.

cheers

Very nice as always mate. I’m creeping ever closer to having something resembling a functioning workshop so maybe before the end of 2019 I might have a crack at something like this...

Thank you, guys.

Another box which was not on the to-do list as I have prepared blanks for the boxes but yesterday we were meant to have a professional demonstrater at the club who did not turn up(at this time reason unknown).
I ended up demonstrating all afternoon and this was one from the demonstration I did.

I have demonstrated before at the club but at least had time to prepare this was done with nothing prepared and the offset jig I had only brought 2 weeks before talk about taking a big risk but everything went as well as it could except that Ash is not the best wood to spray black into end grain as can be seen.
