BIRDS-EYE MAPLE/CHERRY/WALNUT BOXES 12/13 – These five boxes are made from various hardwood scraps left over from other larger projects. They feature cherry sides with walnut squares and oak circles. I laminate a “loaf” of scrap woods about 7″ deep and long enough for one front and one side. I then re-saw the loaf into 1/2″ thick slices to make the side walls. I held off drilling the holes for the 3/8″ oak dowels until I had cut the 7″ loaf into smaller chunks, thus assuring that the 3/8″ hole would not drift off-center over the shorter drilling distance; that worked well. The tops are made from birds-eye maple and silver maple and are attached with concealed “barrel” hinges. Two of the tops feature an attractive damage notch which is filled with an epoxy filler mixed with walnut sawdust. A thin “left-over” slice of the laminate is inlaid into the top and bottom of the 7″ x 7″ box.
