Cherry with ebony inlay and a cedar bottom (floor?). Solid cherry panels. My own design. Let me know what you think.

the aroma to come alive. The inlay was done using a router fence attachment and two shims of equal width. Add both shims rout, remove a shim etc.

Thank you!

However, the chest looks great. Really like the inlay. Nice design.

thank you.

Thank you!

[Lee Michaels]

It looks good. I really like the design and little details you added to it.

This is the sort of thing that I do not dare show my wife!

Nice job! Do you call that Arts & Crafts, with a Japanese persuasion style?

[Tanus]

Me too. Nice and clean and looks flawlessly executed. The inlay is a wonderful touch. I'd be very proud of something like that. I assume you are.

When you were designing, did you have thoughts of lining the three sides with cedar as well?

No. Interesting idea though.

Thank you.

[GarageWoodworks]

Thanks. I thought it had a bit of a Japanese feel too. A little mix of A&C, G&G and Japan? :^|

panels are several pieces glued up. Would have been nice to have single pieces of wood there (but maybe hard to find anything that wide).

Let's see that! I'm an ass man. ;)

I think it'll look really nice once it starts to amber up in the years to come.
