Mike, that had to get you more "points" than just taking her out to dinner! Nice job - very good form, and the ebony stripe is simple and elegant.

Mike,
Was this from Scrollsaw W&C Magazine or Woodcraft? It seems like I have see this before. You did a fine job on it either way.

I really like it! I made one on my scroll saw a while back but it didn't turn out near as nice as that. Well done.

Dewey, yes, I did use the WoodCraft heart as the basic form, but modified it into a simpler box - just eyeballed it, and drew my own shape. Thanks for the comments, glad you all like it - the wife did, haha! Mike

Really lovely, Mike...I really like the design of the top with the relief. It adds a lot to the look!

Very nice work on this Mike! I like the flow to the piece, the ebony accent and the way the overlap of the top matches the bottom. Very good looking box! Thanks for sharing!
