Project Information
I had some small pieces of wood left over from other projects. It was a good chance to practice making Lidded Boxes.
The Stripy Wood is New Guinea Rosewood and the others are Local Wood that I had collected around the Neighbourhood.
I was disappointed with the inside of lids. Bit Rough and Ready Looking. I thought I had sanded them smooth, but when applying the Finish the wood became rough to the touch. Not sure what to do about that. Some timbers are a dream to work with, others are quite difficult.
The Boxes are finished with 4 Coats of Shellac and rubbed between coats with 0000 Steel Wool.
The bottom of Boxes are lined with thin Red Felt Adhesive backed.
Kind regards to all Lumber Jocks…....Cliff.
