Hi

As I've just joined this Forum I thought I should introduce myself the best way I know how:~

Hi there,

welcome to this forum.

Nice box!

Just a warning, if you going to put up a pic then you have to give details!

Don't say you were not warned!

So to pre-empt the demands that will be place on you here - do tell.

Size, wood, more pics of course

There are some very knowledgeable folks here that gladly share their knowledge.

Welcome again.

Welcome Tony, and I must echo the others, what a lovely piece of work!

This box was inspired by the sculptural work of Master Kintaro Yazawa of Japan. He does some unique box joints and fantastic furniture.

This bandsawn box is made from Australian Red Cedar, one of the best timbers in the world. It is a "push through" four drawer box. Each drawer is locked into position by a key as shown in the second image. Length - 14 cm Depth - 10 cm Height - 28 cm.

Welcome to the forum.

Very nice box, I'm jealous :lol:

Hi Tony,
Welcome, great looking box, I suppose we'll have to brace ourselves for some Aussie humour

Just kidding, I have experienced it first hand when I was in Oz.

Edit:-
Just remembered - One of the rules of this forum is that you're only allowed to mention the Ashes if England are winning :lol: :wink:

Tony,
Welcome to the forum. That is a lovely looking piece-as are the other things on your site. We have had only a few bandsaw boxes here ( I recall one at least!) so it will be great to see some more.

 

[Tony Ward]

Thank you for the great welcome to this Forum and the compliments.

Are there many bandsawn box makers, members of this Forum? They are great fun to make and allow for lots of creativity!

Welcome aboard!
Love the box-had a go at one once, so I understand how much work goes into one.
Best regards
Philly
