Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Ash box for Spokeshaves, from scrap woodhad some left over 1/4” Ash scraps, along with quite a bit of 3/4” x 3/4” sticks of Ash…Frame & Panel construction, corners were joined with a Tongue & Groove joint….plywood bottom sits on “slips” mitered and glued in place. racks for the spokeshaves are Pine scrapsStands 5-1/2” tall…front to back is 7-1/4”....and is 12-3/8” long…Brass hinges are mortised in place.
3 coats of Amber Shellac, followed by 3 coats of clear gloss poly.Seemed to be better than just hanging the spokeshaves up on a few nails…there is a foam drawer liner right under the cutters, just in case one should fall out…Chain to hold the lid while it is opened..Thanks for looking in..
