Thanks for the link to Jim's novel on building a box. The names there in the comments sure brought back a lot of memories.

To Lee - I truly admire the artists on this forum who produce absolutely wonderful works of intarsia using exotic natural woods.
Having said this I'm a great believer that the end justifies the means and that if you are happy with the result then how you got there doesn't really matter....04-08-2018, 09:25 PM -
Hey Randy - as you probably know I've been on a helter-skelter work oriented trip traveling the world the past 4 years and had practically no time to do any form of woodwork. I recently called back in after an enforced stay at home for medical reasons. Imagine my surprise today to find an email in my...04-08-2018, 09:11 PM

Oh, man, Randy! I needed that! After what was a simply awful day I came home to console myself with a ice cream treat. I clicked on the link to Jim's WIP and giggled my way through all 135 posts. What an awesome project! Did we ever learn, did Jim make two more boxes for his sisters-in-laws?04-08-2018, 05:14 AM

I'm not fond of buying too much online since my monitor may or may not show me the actual colors of what's available--not to...04-07-2018, 06:59 PM

When the site converted, a lot of the site links broke. Here is the WIP article Jim did when making the project. I wish he would have published the patterns.

Lignum Vitae is interesting. when you shape it it turns a light brown, put it in the sun for a couple of hours and it reverts back to green blue. ...04-07-2018, 08:02 AM

Several of you mentioned green poplar (as did I) and also Lignum Vitae for green, and blue pine for blue. Back in the '80s my dad gave me a couple of boards from a cottonwood tree that had been pulled out of a lake after having been submerged for probably a hundred years. Dad got them from a neighbor....04-06-2018, 10:24 PM
