Little Box

[loz]

Tiny little box from Mahogany,

Finial is .25 mil thick at the thinnest, the beads and finial top are .5 mil, the box is 30 x 25. I have hollowed the almost have an even wall thickness. the interior following ( as best i could ! ) the shape.

i grinded a couple of Allen keys into tools for this job, one as a teardrop scraper for hollowing, the other into a rudimentary skew for the finial.

Cute little box Loz. Nice proportions and shape. Nice to see someone else uses Allen keys. Masonry nails are good as well.
