A box for Habitat for Humanity

[Mark Valsi]

I built this over the last 2 months (slowly) for the next Auction that HfH is having here in the Pasadena area.

Bird's eye maple and paduk, my usual finish of Danish, but this time I added some Sam Maloof finish and wax.

Comments and criticisms welcomed.

[Michael Weber]

Wow, I love it. Beautiful top. Love the way the 'handle' drops down into the front and how the bottom of the inside trays extend past their sides. Great design feature.

[Harvey Pascoe]

I'll bet you had fun trying to keep the padauk dust from staining the maple! I usually fail at that task.

[John Thompson]

Like the contrast of the curly and paduk...

Real nice work on the box Mark.
I hope it does well for you in the auction.

[Carl Civitella]

Very nice work. I gotta get busy... Carl
