A Valentine present to my wife of 41 years. Plans are from the December 1995 WOOD MAGAZINE.

Absolutely beautiful!!! She'll love it.

Can you give us any construction details?

Very nice work but won't the cutouts in the top let the smell out?

Jack,
The case is oak and the splines are purple heart. The top is a veneer on top of a composite (2'X4')that I purchased from the Woodcraft catalog back in 1995. Sorry but I forgot the name of the veneer.

Jerry Very nice work. I've been married also 41 years but I look older than a young guy like you...Again, very nice work.

Valentines day? What's that??? Something I should be concerned with, no doubt, as I go off to the WW show this weekend!

Nice looking piece, Jerry! Good timing too - well ahead of schedule...
