Walnut Burl Box w/ Lighthouse Finial

[steven carter]

SWMBO bought a chunk of walnut burl and asked me to make her a box. She if very into lighthouses, so I made this box and tried to make a finial that at least resembled a lighthouse. Turned out 5" wide by 2 1/4 high, not counting the "lighthouse". Oil finish, beall buffed tripoli and then renaissance wax. The finial is cherry.

Very nice! Looks like a light house to me . Nice work!

MWWTSHBO (My wife who thinks she should be obeyed) likes this one because of the lighthouse finial.
