Tea box for my daughter.We must have had 10 or 12 boxes of various tea, every time someone wanted tea every box ended up on the counter.Newly discovered clutter / organizing problem + quarantine + extra cherry lumber = get in the shop and make something….The box is made from cherry with a figured maple book matched top with maple dividers finished with maple splines for strength. I have a couple more polyurethane coats to apply on the outside of the box and it will be complete.Dimensions are 4 1/4 high, 10 1/2 deep, exactly 12 wide. I tried to estimate a new box of tea and size the compartments to fit them.

BBQ Block

BBQ BlockHey Lumber jocks, '
Just wanted to post some pics of the latest project. A BBQ Block. This is a Redwood block that I put together from left over Redwood drops and scraps It's 68” in length and 19” in width. It's made to look 7” thick. I jointed all the boards and then biscuit joined the top boards together and simply trimmed the entire slab. I did add a thin piece of Oak to the ends to cover all ends. I glued and screwed the entire assembly using Titebond and Tru Lock screws, trying to keep the heads flush with the surface. These screws are for outdoor use and I highly recommend them. Several coats of BLO and we'll see how it holds up.I am having some thoughts about applying some film coating – maybe something from Total Boat. One pic shows the block in progress on top of my recently finished workbench. Thanks Lost Coast Craftsman.
Thanks for checking out the BBQ Block. I will try to post some better pics.
Greg
