"Flat Cherry <br />   I call this my Flat ""Cherry"" Box. On the top of the box is a variation of a ""Rolling Star"" quilt pattern.  The flat box is about 9 1/4"" x 6 1/4"" and 2 7/8"" high on the outside. Inside it is 8 1/2"" x 5 1/2"" x 1 3/8"".  I made it using 238 pieces of wood cut in either diamond or triangle shapes from different kinds of wood. The box is finished in its natural color with 5 or 6 coats of a clear wiping varnish, rubbed in by hand. The pieces are a bit over 3/16"" thick, glued onto a Baltic Birch base, so hold up much better than a thin veneer.<br />     The type of wood is listed on the bottom of the box from the center out. On this box the wood is ""Chechen"" from Mexico, ""Sycamore"" and ""Cherry"" from Missouri.<br />      On the bottom I signed it, listed the wood, and dated it.  After the date, the words ""Foot Cut"" let you know I made it on a foot powered table saw.<br /> <br />      I lined the box with black velveteen."
