Bread box

It's a bandsaw box. Basswood  5" x 5" x 12" blank. Scraps for the breadboard, mahogany drawer. Acrylic paints and Mohawk Dead Flat lacquer.

I made templates for the inside of the bread slices, to make them match.

Magnets hold the heel slice to the bread board, and the box drawer slice to the loaf.

Good one. Creative!

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

Very clever… and very realistic. It really looks like a loaf of bread.
that is very cool,the first pic i thought it was a real loaf of bread.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Nice psych..
I didn't realize it was real until I saw the box with the cash.
Nice Job

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.

I think I saw this before - I totally forgotten about it and was fooled again!
Thanks!!

Sweet Hairy, fooled me, I was thinking is was a typo on the title, that's no box it's a bread board. Very clever design and well done.

I love my homemade bread (from my bread maker - cheating a bit!) and you had me fooled.  What a fun project.  Your dough will go farther than mine.  
You did a good one there, congrats.

Oh no... not another cutting board... AND without sides!

Wuz gonna just gloss over it but I like looking at anything hairy (morning mirror)... Very pleasant surprise.

All that's missing is some monumental dough over $20!

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD

Nice, Hairy! My sweetie wanted to know “won’t it get stale?”

May you have the day you deserve!

When I first saw it, I thought " What the heck, that's a bread board not a box". That has to be as realistic as I have ever seen. Excellent job !!!   Mike
