  3. Projects Large Walnut Jewelry Box, converted from humidor

    So I had previously been making cigar humidors, but I kept running into issues with wood movement. At the time, I was working in an uninsulated, unheated garage and after I completed several humidors over the summer, by late fall several had warped lids and I had difficulty in getting a...

  5. Projects My first cutlery tray

    After a long time learning how to sharpen things, making shooting board, sawing jigs, etc. I finally managed to produce something we need (a cutlery tray for our cabin in the woods).

  6. Projects Cedar Planter Box

    Yes, it's another planter from yours truly! I was inspired by a planter I saw on Etsy. Much of the material was scavenged from a job site dumpster. It's amazing what people will throw away. This one measures roughly 20x36 with a planting area of 16x32 and about 11½ soil depth. Standard pocket...
  7. Projects Dice tower

    My son and daughter-in-law are avid board gamers, so when I drew my son's name for Christmas, I decided I'd make him a dice tower. In an attempt to reduce noise, I elected to cover every "impact" surface with leather. If I were to make these for sale, I'm not sure I'd bother. It complicated...
  8. Projects Hickory box

    Here's a band saw box with a saddle top cut into a wave pattern using some nice grained hickory. The box is approximately 11 x 4 x 3 1/2 and splays bottom to top. This is a Michael Cullen inspired box shape and a carving pattern I found of David Fishers'. Two incredibly talented...
  9. Projects Walnut Humidor

    The latest addition to my humidor line, this one a bit larger with the top made from one large solid piece of walnut. I've started collecting molding router bits to use on the sides of my humidors/boxes. I used the largest one I had, a 3" long molding bit I bought off amazon. I lined with...
  10. Projects Another keepsake box (my second box)

    Yup, I made another box. This time out of some maple which I have decided is a more "finicky" wood. Originally this box was going to be joined via dovetails but, well, I've determined that joinery is going to be something I focus on just a little bit down the road here. So for now it's a 45...
  11. Projects A Simple Box

    So I built a box. This was my first box and I had fun doing it. This started with me ripping a 4" wide piece of cherry off a bigger, 26" long and 1.5" thick block slab that I bought a little while back. So this really did start off with just a block of wood. I ran two adjoining edges on...
  12. Projects Mahogany Humidor

    This was my first time working with mahogany, and while I don't usually stain hard woods, I liked how this dark mahogany stain looked on it. The veneer I used for the lid is chestnut. Brusso hinges. I considered adding a catch or hardware knob, but decided I like the clean look without them. GF...
  13. Projects Ring Box from Mallee Burl

    One of my daughter’s friends is going to propose to her long-time girlfriend and she asked if I would make a ring box for the engagement ring she bought. I was honored that she asked, so I pulled out a piece of Australian red mallee burl that I’ve had for several years waiting for just the right...

    I have made a few of these small card boxes for gifts. They are from Mike Pekovich's book. Fun to make using his hand plane miter jig. The lid on a few ended up so tight fitting that you had to wait for the air to displace.
