Working with a guy in Australia to build him a monster flybox to display his dry fly collection in his office. He gave me the dimentions and said he wanted curly red oak. Just couldnt find a pefect piece large enough for his request. We settled on a mosaic of my choice showcasing the oak. What I came up with was, Curly red oak, Black Walnut, Hard Maple and African Sapele. Now Im waiting for a pair of antique brass latches I have on order for a classy hardware look. Really pleased with this one!!

Thanks guys.

Ive made a couple small boxes with this design and they really are attractive. I'll be making more in the future. :)
