My latest creation a lidded box Chinese  inspiration this  is the base  the timber is cherry robbed of local tree surgeons . The knob is elder a hard creamy timber used  in the old days for meat skewers  the red bits are the Mother-in-law's  knitting needles 

The base bored out and the reverse of the top made

The top fitted
