Simple box with dovetails. Not a real big fan of dovetails, but Martin said he’d give me a prize if I made it..(‘>’) Lightly spalted maple with a dovetail sliding lid. Not sure what will be done with it, maybe sell it as an urn. But for now i’m storing some wooden bowties in there.

Very unique dovetails. Spent a couple of minutes trying to figure out how you did it; tails on side and end boards with a mitered joint and then a dovetail pin insert?
