Now, not very long.
But when I concepted this thing, I had millions of problems.
The biggest thing is time. I had to let it rest in cold, dry, hot, wet, and it's been on top of my fridge for the last couple months just to make sure it didn't warp, bend, crack, or just go goofy.
Now that all that's done, I can bang out a box and know it'll be fine because the joinery techniques are proven.
It's a LOT easier making little boxes than big boxes because my machines are small.
I have lots of ideas for small boxes, and that's what I like to make, so it'll be a good while till I start messing with bigger boxes.
I also have lots of ideas for big cabinets for small boxes, and a bunch of other stuff.
I have too many projects on the bench right now, so it'll all just have to wait.

Nice hummie, broh - now, if you only had some money left, you could afford to put some cigars in it.

Wow, that's really nice. Using beautiful wood definitely adds its part but the craftsmanship looks like quality too.

I love the zebrawood, but finish really takes away from it.
I'd like to try minwax on some and see how it looks.

So do you have to remove the screws to add water to the beads? Can you show us a pic of the beads in place?

Awesome work Scott?

Awesome work Scott?
No, you never have to remove the beads.
Odds are, you'll never have to adjust the RH unless you leave it open or get incredibly wet cigars or something.
Yes, I'll take pics when I make the beads today.

Not done yet. It's SO close, but I've been too crippled up to work in the shop. It's driving me crazy.
