The inspiration came from George Watkin.

This is a small box that I made today and is a first for me. It is from Yew and has a paste wax finish.
The idea came from Georges pieces.

A fantastic little box Terry love the shape and wood choice. Did you use the buffing system to do the finish by any chance:whistling:

Finishing like George does needs special lighting just to get a pic IMHO well worth it though.
