I am searching for a way to make more supplemental income than I do with just puzzles. My first lesson learned from puzzles was to find a highier price point item. To do that, I did some local research of what is selling at local shows, online and actual retail gift stores. Keeping in line with the equipment I have and my talents, the idea of boxes came up.
So, here are pictures of my first attempts which are more prototype than commercial. The pictures were taken to protect the wood worker. The point is to show how to take scroll work and combine it with some other wood working to create another product. Part of my idea started with Jim Finn and his double bevel inlay boxes. The rose inlay is a double bevel, but others are a twist on the idea. The butterfly is stack cutting different woods and then overlaying it rather than inlaying it. The overlay rose started life as double bevel, but ended up as an overlay.
Just thowing some ideas out there.
