First Christmas gift finished music box

08-31-2011, 06:04 PM

Just finished this music box. Made out of mahogany and poplar. The white flicks are part of the mahogany grain. It is going to be a Christmas gift for my granddaughter. She is seven and loves butterflies. The pattern is one of Sue Mey's. Thanks to all that sent me in the right direction for the music movement.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
