Shoulder plain box

Made this box from oak/maple to have a place to keep my shoulder plane looking new. Rich mahogany and espresso gel stain separated with amber shellac and finished with satin wipe on polyurethane. I used the shoulder plane to make a nice snug fitting lid!

Nice storage box!

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

That's something I need to put on my list. I have the same plane sitting in a drawer.

Very elegant storage!
Also need to make one as mine is in its original cardboard box.   Like your box.

Nothing better than a classy box for a classy tool!
That’s a great storage box. The color coordinates so well with the plane.
Thanks Ron….i think I used Rick mahogany and dark espresso gel stain in that order. 
Nice looking plane. The shoulder plane is an under rated plane. Really nice looking box 
Beautiful storage box for the plane!
