    That is one of the nicest slide shows I've ever seen....wish there were more pics!!!! Couldn't get all of them on the hinges to load.

    Wood is very beautiful in tree form. Wood is very useful in burning form. I merely try to make my work honor the first, avoid the latter, and aim for the middle: beautiful and useful.

    Simply excellent work. I don't think I have seen a more beautiful jewelry box.
    Best Regards,

    I'm not usaully into small boxes but that is one awesome piece!! The workmanship and detail is very inspiring.
    I'd also like to know how you managed the corners.

    Thank you all so very much. I am building another two humidors right now. I'll take pics as they goes together. These have some incredible Maple burls for the figured panels.

    Beautiful box, Bill. Very special! The inlay is exquisite.

    Great work!!! I like the way the inlay looks like it is "sewing" the pieces together!!. What finish did you use?
