Very stoked.

We had a contest at our club today. Everybody that wanted to enter had to make a lidded box that would fit into an 8” cube. My box was made with a pecan bottom and quarter sawn sycamore top and finial outside and inside. It has four coats of Arm-R-Seal semi gloss then buffed with carnauba wax.
