Another box from my workshop before I close it down.

Made from mahogany and lined with red felt. This was done with the help from my great granddaughter as a present for her mums birthday

It will be. It is going to be 20 x 10 and taller but I have to empty this one. I need to empty my wood store first then pull that down so that I can empty my current shop and move that too where the wood store is just so I can put the new shop where the old one is.
My wood store is on its last legs

Really like the box, must try that technique out.

Maybe there are members in Kent ( too far for me ) who could help you relocate the contents of your wood store rather than risk it getting wet whilst you rebuild :thumbs:

You might even get some of the wood back afterwards…..

Some will end up as firewood as it has split but not that much luckily and some of my club members have had some one being a 18" X 36" lump of yew as I have plenty and still have a 24" x 40" lump still to cut into blanks
