Two New Boxes

[KenB259]

I usually don't add splines to these but decided to change it up a bit. I really like the look with the splines. The box is maple and the splines and the internal sides are Sapelle. The inside bottoms and tops are blue faux leather. Obviously, the tops are engraved eagle designs.

I like the fact there's no evidence of the saw blade in the kerf.
Beautiful.

After I separate the top and bottom, I run them through my drum sander. That works flawlessly.

Very attractive.

Nice boxes. Complements on the engraved eagles. Relevant for this 250th year.
Trivia- Ben Franklin wanted the wild turkey as the national symbol.

I also like the splines. To me they represent a higher level of workmanship. Very nice boxes Ken!
