Walnut and Maple Desk Pen Box

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!

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.

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