This is the first of several BS boxes that are gonna come from The Ultimate Band Saw Box Book. Wood is spalted maple, with 3 or 4 coats of watco oil and 3 or 4 coats of tung oil.

Nice! Looks like your curve cutting got a work-out. How'd you sand it down after cutting? I'd worry about getting irregular edges.

Just had to start with the hardest one, didn't you Pat. It's beautiful.

Ah shucks! You beat me to it! Too much rain here to get in the shop and make some of the UBSB boxes.

BTW, beautifully done! Hope mine turn out as nice.

This is only a wild guess Tony, I piddled with the thing on and off for a couple of weeks, (don't normally do that but....) Probably total labor time.....maybe 3-4 hours but that maybe high. Most of the time of course is waiting on glue and finish to dry. Pat
