Jewelry Boxes X3 - Some late christmas presents

Don't remember when I started this project, I want to say it was supposed to be for Christmas last year.  3 identical jewelry boxes out of a resawn musical grade walnut board.  Legs were made out of African blackwood, rejects from the clarinet business.  Not very many pictures from working with that wood because it was extremely difficult.  Splintery and extremely hard

Dovetailing of drawers

Finishing some grooves with hand tools

Hand thicknessed drawer runners

Hand shaping some dovetail keys.  You'll have to look and find out what they are for.

Finished exterior

Sarah and I did the fabric on the interior

 3 boxes next to each other, hopefully they'll ship out this weekend.


Next up?  Picture frames, fireplace cover and a kitchen workbench.
