This is my latest effort in Maple. Outside dimensions are approx. 13X9X7

Nice!

Out of all the woods, I admire maple the most. It's hard and durable but the grain is opposite soft and pale.

Good job!

What a unique and beautiful piece. Good job! May we see the interior?

Very Nice,

Call that one The Alter.... "All who enter here pay homage to the great god of smoke...."

She's a beaut. X

A pleasure to see the result of pure craft. How'd you learn to do that?

Nice job x! Looks like you finished it natural right?

I started with a golden stain. Just one coat. Then many coats of tung oil varnish sanded to 12,000 grit. I started out doing humidors from plans. As I became more confident, I tried different things. This whole humidor is a big experiment. It worked out okay! My next will be even better.

X- WOW!

That looks awesome..

Tha tis something I want to try in the near future. Perhaps you can share some pointers when I dive in and give it a shot.

Very nice humi xrundog. You obviously take pride, and a lot of time, in your humi creations. Good job and thanks for sharing.

Where do you get your wood, and what kind of router do you use?

Great looking piece! I would love that one, you are an artist!

Cigarick, I get my wood at a local place. Colonial Hardwoods. They plane it to spec. I have a 2hp Craftsman router. If I could do it over, I'd buy the next size up DeWalt. Ya get what ya pay for!
