Spanish Ceder Box

[dgman]

Not wanting to high jack the post on Spanish Ceder, I wanted to show a box I made from Spanish Ceder. It is the Gentleman's box by John Nelson.
Our Woodworkers club had a workshop building potting benches from Spanish Ceder. I received a bunch of scraps including 1/4" panels. that is what I used for this box. finished with a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and mineral spirits, with a top coat of Deft semi gloss spray Lacquer.
Just wanting to show that this wood defiantly is a great wood to use for scrolling!

I agree with you Dan. Its a softer hardwood. Cuts and finishes beautifully. And the smell when you cut is pleasant.
Your box looks great!

Dan,
beautiful job on that box. I agree with you Spanish cedar is a joy to work with one of my favorites. I just don't like the bitter taste it leaves in my mouth. I always wear a mask when cutting it.
