Polka Dot Box

Submitted on the old forum by Chet

I built this box for my niece's new baby girl.  The inside and outside are Wenge and the polka dots are maple.  I kind of got the idea from one of the boxes that Matt Kenney did in his book 52 boxes in 52 weeks.  I used box joints on the corners and the lid handle is also made from maple.

1) That's pretty cool! I'll take 2 please!

3) Excellent job!

4) Yea, I didn't date and sign it and it is now in Wales where she lives.  I did write a nice two page letter (remember those) to her and the baby that gets left in the box. 

5) I do remember letters. Those and actual phone calls other than robo dials.
