Textured Oak Scrap Box

Nice Piece. Looks like you’ve been busy. How long to make this? I’m thinking you have it down to a science (If Murphy doesn’t show up.)

i love the old looking wood, there is a rustic heartbeat to this one and whatever it holds it will be someone’s treasure box, great box greg.

Tom….busy is my middle name cause I really enjoy what I do. This didn’t take long at all…maybe a couple of hours…not counting the drying time of glue and finishes. The sandblasting is slow on oak since it is a hard wood. I have a 5hp Ingersoll Rand compressor with a huge tank and it still is underpowered at times.

Grizzman… Thanks…I know you like the rustic look based from your awesome work and your rustic designs you put into your home. I’m having fun making the new woods look rustic.

My first one will take at least a week. LOL! Probably longer?

I’m sure you can knock em” out fast Tom. You just got to visualize each step and the final look in your mind.

Very nice…I like the look…makes it seem ‘earthy’...:D

Greg,
You’re probably right, but its those first steps I gotta do so I can visualize???? I’m sure your second box came quicker than the first. LOL!

Tom….my first box I ever made was somewhere around 1959 +- and I have no idea how long it took…

Greg, you are working hard or either playing hard in the shop spitting those projects out, I do recall you mentioning a show coming up. All of my projects are now by way of order request and a trip to the post office, My open top men’s valet boxes are my main seller and my new primary focus.
