Here is yet another mahogany box turned from some rich dark chocolate brown mahogany that Travis Stinson shared with me. I hope to get at least 2 more boxes from the stick he sent.

This box is 2 1/4" in diameter and 2 3/4" tall. This wood was very hard and dense and turned beautifully and held detail well. I had no problems sanding it as I was able to start sanding at 220 or so. Nice wood, thanks Travis.

As usual another Great Box! I really like the form and the rim detail on the top. Just perfect:) :)

Looks great Mike! Love the dark color of that wood and looks like a great finish on it.

Thanks for the pictures!
