Bandsaw Box - thanks to Brian in Dawson Creek

[gary]

Many thanks to Brian in Dawson Creek for his guidance. I built this box per his pattern. This is only a prototype so I could learn and make mistakes on and it's a little thinner than Brians plan (didn't want to waste a lot of wood on it). I learned a lot. My next one is from Spalted Poplar and then another out of Paduk. Thanks for looking

Wow, great job for a practice run!

[shoottx]

Way Cool!

I don't think you needed the practice run. Some one will love that bandsaw box.

Excellent box, Gary! I couldn't find the cut line in the face.

Okay guys, this isn't fair. I was an art major in college, and I simply LOVED the surrealists... Now I am going to HAVE to build some bandsaw boxes... That thing has Salvador Dali written all over it!

In case you aren't aware, that is a good thing...

[chopnhack]

that is a very sweet piece!!
Great work on it

It MIGHT be a good thing if you can find some blind sucker to buy it for that inflated kind of money.

Actually, now that I look at it some more, it's better looking and should be worth even more.

Sharp looking box Gary. Don't tell Pappy the secret. Spalted wood really adds to the effect, you'll really like the result. I've done three of them now and could probably buy a lot of new tools if I'd sell them, which I refuse to do. Pat

That's a prototype?????? Looks pretty darn good to me!

[IBBugsy]

Simply speechless!!

[Whaler]

Very nice work Gary.

[Black wallnut]

Well done Gary. You're starting on a long path that can become an obsession.

[Brian in Dawson Creek]

Well if that’s a prototype, I’d say you’re well on your way.

Nicely done!

Brian
