LIDDED BOX WITH KNOB

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


This is a Lidded Box with a Knob,from a combination of Three Woods. The Base is from Australian Hard Wood, The Lid is New Guinea Rose Wood and the Knob is from a Neighbours Shrub which had a very close and hard grain….I wish I had a heap of logs of this wood. It is quite beautiful.The Diameter of the Box is 4 inches and the Height from the Top of the Knob, to the Base is 4 1/8 inches.
It is finished with 4 coats of Shellac. Usually I would Wax it and hand buff with a soft cloth. But I was getting keen to put the project on LJs and couldn't wait a few hours before Waxing.
There is a felt lining which I made a mess of. Some of the adhesive Spray glue went from my finger on to the felt when I pressed it into place….”What a Boofhead” still we live and learn.In my haste I forgot to take pictures of the wood before preparing and turning.Kind regards to all Lumber Jocks…...Cliff.
