This is the first case I made. I had a Boxelder go down and this is from that. It is finished with poly. I always love Boxelder. 
I want to say it is about 12” tall(I no longer have it). I would have liked to make the walls a little thinner but had a hard time getting tools in there. 
Some good coloring with the red tint, and the knot makes a nice drain hole. LOL.

I’ll have to make a cap for it Eric!

Thank you SG. It does look like wax. 

Thanks Pottz that’s what I love about Boxelder. I only wish the colors would stay as vibrant as when it’s still green. 

It is a nice wood old rivers. 

Foghorn Manitoba maple, that’s a new one for me. :-)
Love how boxelder can get that red streak in it. 

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

I've always wanted to use box elder.  This is so pretty!
Yeah it’s awesome Ryan! 

Thanks BB1
