made a pen box today.

Found the plans on carvewright and made one of these box.
Had a little problem with getting the hinges correct so the top and bottom are off a little.
(sorry for the bad pics only had my phone with me)

Very nice box. What kind of wood did you use? You must have a machine that carves the wood.

That is an awesome box! Congratulations on such fine work. Not to be picky, but are you planing on adding a liner of some type inside to hold the pens more securely? Just a thought.

Thanks.
I used a carvewright machine to carve it out a piece of red oak.
thought about using felt but not sure how well it would form. Maybe flock would work.

Nice! Always wanted to play with one of those carving machines...looks like fun.
