I have always enjoyed constructing chests/boxes. The more dovetails, the happier that I am. Here's four chests that I've made, starting with a full sized Pennsylvania walnut blanket chest. Construction is walnut/poplar with hand forged hinges and hardwear from Ball & Ball. The second is a 2/3 size made from curly oak/poplar. This wood was a birthday present from a friend. The lock escutcheons are an inlaid ebony wood. Number 3 is a 1/4 size chest made from PA cherry/poplar. The last one is made from the leftover oak/poplar from #2 and is a fully functional "little" chest and was made for our daughter. All four of these chests were modeled on the first one.
