Great looking piece Mike! That finial really set the whole thing off. Thanks for sharing.
Take care, Dave

Very well done Mike. A beautiful bit of timber. Too bad about the check the the miliput took care of it nicely. The finial on the lid really sets the whole piece off.👍👍 And a great finish too. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

Very nice. You always make it look so easy! When I go at it............well not so much! I eventually get close to what I have imagined! Thanks for the video and the "impetus" to get out there and try.

[@johnweller5491]

Very nice! I'm inspired to make a similar one with some cherry I have. Unfortunately it has a split and I couldn't hear what you used properly - could you tell me in a reply please?

[@MikeWaldt]

Thank you John, I used Milliput which is a two part epoxy. Cheers. Mike

[@MANJITSINGH-ko2oi]

HI MIKE its beautifullllll

[@MikeWaldt]

Thanks Manjit much appreciated.

[@ernestrosenkranz7642]

You are using a spindle gouge for hollowing out he lid ???
What did you use to fill the crack ??

[@MikeWaldt]

Hi Ernest I used Milliput which is a two part epoxy.

[@MarklTucson]

Very nice box; one just can't go wrong with cherry, it is one of my favorite woods to work. Really like the shape you gave this box. Is there a general rule of thumb or decision process you use to decide whether to put the tenon on the lid or the bottom?

[@MikeWaldt]

Thanks Mark it's down to personal preference in my view, and I felt it was more aesthetically pleasing in this orientation. Thanks for watching.

[@Kosh42EFG]

Wait. Did you say Milliput? I've been filling with either coloured CA or resin line I would in normal woodworking.

[@MikeWaldt]

There are many ways to fill ... all are good if they work for you. Cheers. Mike

[@MrSharper802]

Excellent work!! What did you use as the drive spur mounted in jaws of the chuck? I've not seen that before?

[@MikeWaldt]

Thank you ... it's a chuck mounted steb drive by Robert Sorby.

[@chrisdodds3383]
