378572378576378577378578378571378579378580378581A friend at my church before Christmas give me 5 perfect walnut boards about 5 3/4 wide and 8 ft log. Than he gave me 3 more walnut boards about the same width and 8 ft long.Plus 3 cherry boards 4 ft long and 7" wide. He said that was an early Christmas present. He wanted me to make him two walnut jewelry boxes. So here are the pictures of them.
Thanks for looking, Bob 378569

nice work, Bob!
I built one very similar recently but my top has started to cup. UGH!
I think it's beyond reasonable repair so I am rethinking options for the remake... I hadn't considered a "rail and stile" approach but I just might try now. With any luck, maybe I can plane the warp out of the existing top and repurpose to a floating panel!

Those are right nice.
