Box elder box

I got a bunch of box elder from my woodworking club shop.  I made a box using hidden hinges. Hopefully the box elder will keep its color for awhile.
Nice looking box, the box elder is good looking also.

I like that wood with the red streaks. Fingers crossed that it stays put!

Wonder if an impervious finish (poly, lacquer, etc.) would slow down any fading.

Very appropriate use of box elder for a box, hopefully you got enough to make a few more!
yeah great box but sadly that beautiful red will fade away. i made nightsatnd tops with it and the red is all gone now 😞
