A twist on Basket Weaving

[grandpawrichard]

My latest Wood working project:

The box isn't finished yet, I still need to put a Scroll Sawn map of the State of Washington on it and then a lifting knob that will also be a small cut out map of Washington State.

....

That's really special GPR!! Thanks for sharing it!

what are the dimensions on that box GPR?

Gorgeous! I like how you used different woods. The curving of the weave really brings out the grain.

That's beautiful, GPR!

I'm kind of worried about your phone number being visible on the first photo -- is there anyway you can blank that out, so the entire Internet universe doesn't see it?

You are so talented GPR, just beautiful! Still waiting on the jumpin salmon box

Thank you Everyone! My Sister-in-law is heavily into the Lady's Version of the Masons....The Eastern Star. This box was ordered by her to give as a gift to the California State Representative of that Order. When I get it done it will have a map of the State of Washington made out of 1/8th. inch thick material on the lid and then a lifting knob that will also be the State of Washington Map made out of thicker material.

I'm pretty happy with the results so far, and so is my Sister-in-law.

One of these days I am going to have to make one of these boxes for myself to put my Vapeing supplies in!

Incantius,
I'll have to measure the box tomorrow and let you know.

Eleanor,
Thanks for the concern, but I'm not too worried about that! In fact, it has already netted me several Orders from people that saw the photos and fell in love with the box.

plantlvr,

I haven't forgotten you! I have quite a backlog of orders for boxes. I promise to get to you and your request as soon as possible!

Yup! You sure did put in a request! So did about 35 other people! I'm slowly working my way down the list.
If you keep razzin' me the price is going up in direct proportion to the razzin!!
