I absolutely have a fetish for boxes and wooden trunks. I don't really know why, but I just love 'em. You really have a skill, there. That chest is awesome! So, about how much time do you put into one like that? Do you have plans you follow or just make it up as you go along? Do you build any trays to fit inside too? Really fine work. Love it.

Thanks . A friend of mine had a cedar tree ruff cut for me into one inch planks. This trunk took me about two weeks. About 4 to 5 hours a day. Only one of its kind. And i have no plans on this. I make as i go. I have made several since then. About a foot long . With a tray and felt lined. Its a hobby , I love woodworking as well. Thanks for your interest. I have made all types .With no plans. Love it. Larry
