Another one made from offcuts. This is quite big for a bandsaw box, I had to make it in two halves to get it under the bandsaw guides.
15" long x 10" high x 5" deep.
Woods are padauk, Iroku, birch ply, and Bubinga.
The lift out tray is Oak, all finished in blue flocking. This one sold before I finished it. :o :P

VERY pretty!!!

Where(what) are you sourcing your hardware from?
Just the usual Amazon stuff? or from a particular vendor??

I've been looking for (and FINALLY found) a source for hasps with locks for jewelry boxes. Plenty of hasps, some locks, but very few combos.BUt was looking for alternative sources.

Smitty, I dont think you would want to use my supplier, the shipping costs might put you off :D
The shop is in England. I live in Cyprus but get many visitors from England during the year (family and friends) so I order the stuff to their houses and they bring me care packages 8-)
But take a look, you might find something special.

I have a weakness for old Sheffield chisels and have purchased a couple of lots off Ebay UK. Shipping is usually around $40 Canadian, sometimes a bit more.
