Today Sue Ann got her birthday present.  in my house I have to call things by different names when they are a gift for someone since I have a 7 year old that sucks at keeping secrets.  When i made the kids desk i told her it was a rocket launcher.  Anyways, here is the Becky Box...






Its made from WDH's maple and purple heart with lacquer finish.

Look at that curly maple  8).

Wildbill,

You did a very fine job.  I am impressed, and I know that Sue Ann will be pleased.  Those splines are cool.

Very fine workmanship and the wood is nice too.
You may think that you can or may think you can't; either way, you are right.

Very nice.  WDH's maple never looked that good when he had it.   :)

That's really nice!

I really like those splines! Did you use a jig on the table saw to cut the slots?

Yep.  Should have made the jig a little larger though.  The Becky box is about as big as it does (safely)
