This is my most recent project. It is a box I made to use at my desk. I wanted the box to look modern and kind of art decco like my desk does, so I routed the rebate on the bottom to give it that same floating look. I like the way it turned out. I turned the pens inside of it, these are my favorites that I use everyday at work, I wanted to give them a nice home

Anyway, it is Walnut with a figured maple slab top. Finish is a home brew tung oil varnish.
Thanks for looking!

Very nice art decco piece challagan. You nailed it, and some nice looking pens also.

**Bob** · 09-08-2006, 06:12 AM

Beautiful again Corey...... Everytime I see that box I want to get mine started.

**challagan** · 09-08-2006, 08:26 AM

Thanks all for the kind words. Maybe I will enter it

How do I enter, since the photos are posted in this thread it won't let me repost them. Can I link this thread?

Thanks,
Corey

Corey,

I wasn't going to tell you about the contest because you'll enter and steal my prize

Of course if you don't many others are going to beat me out anyhow including BJ

**bobj3** · 09-08-2006, 03:35 PM

Hey

Bob N

If I win and that's a REAL long shot all I want is the

Tenon Cutter
http://us.oak-park.com/catalogue.html?list=RBIT-MTB-

It's real hard bit to find

I just may have nailed my chance to win because Bob & Rick & Mark know what that bit goes for, but that's OK I will take the chance ...

I also saw a bit set on the list and I'm sure that item is off the list because it's more than one bit.

Bob you didn't say what you wanted ("steal my prize")

I think we ALL have a good shot to win, many ,many,many great projects

Bj
