This years project was again an attempt to be a practical useful one. There are eleven homemade 1/4 inch thick panels. Each panel was made with hand selected pieces for eye appeal, with the bottom panels as an exception. In the front three panels, the middle two pieces of each are book matched out of the same block of tree. Each end panel also has book matched pieces. The three supports, together with the piano hinge, hold the lid up hands free. The four sides and bottom of the inside are lined with aromatic cedar. A divider of aromatic cedar is also included. As always, two coats of oil and three coats of varnish.
This item was entered into the Minnesota State Fair and was awarded 4th place.
