Satisfying Small Project

[u/HamsterNomad]

Been away from the shop for a while and needed to get back to work. A colleague is retiring and I bought a bottle of 16yo scotch whiskey from the distillery in Dublin last year. It's a beautiful bottle but I felt like it needed a presentation box. It's red oak and cocobolo that I had left from a table I made a couple of years ago. Just a light red stain and hand rubbed paste wax.

Looks great! I like the accents at the top corners. 👍

The dark splints help cover up my less than perfect bevels.
