Wow… now that’s a box! I’m very interested in making it a “winter project”. Your tutorial is great as well.

I love the Douglas fir as the background! Not only is it frugal, but the wide stripes in the grain really set off the other stuff. Excellent work and beautiful design.

Well done Abbas.
You’ve done a fine job on the box and I’m sure Martyn would be proud.
I’m also happy to see another woodworker discover the advantages of HHG.

The early bird gets the worm but its the second mouse that gets the cheese.

That is very well done and very unique. You do nice work.

Thanks Ellen.

Thanks Brian. Douglas fir has some character. I still have some I got from the demolished mezzanine from work.

Thanks Paul! I am still practicing HHG on longer pieces. My brush is not adequate I need a better one.

Try these ones Abbas. I really like them for all but the small jobs that require smaller brushes.
For smaller jobs I use a set of cheap long handled round brushes from Michael’s. There are ten brushes in a pack, two of each of five sizes.

Thanks Paul.
I will order a couple to try.

It happens that Michael is one block away from the office. I will walk there and check what brushes they have.
