Mahogany, walnut, and maple box

[bc60]

I made this box for my daughter for Christmas this year. The box and some of the top trim pieces are mahogany, and the other top trim pieces are walnut and maple. Plans came from the Aug/Sept 2010 issue of Woodsmith magazine. Plans were pretty easy except for a couple mistakes in the measurements for the diamonds and parallelograms. I did find corrections for the measurements on their website but not before I had ruined a few of the diamonds from the incorrect measurements and had to recut them.

No scrollsaw work. Everything cut on the table saw. Box measures roughly 10" x 13" x 3.5"
