I have quite a lot of new boxes up for sale.
Some beautiful exotic wood. Some really wonderful domestic wood and some new engraving graphics!


I also have a couple "damage discounts" These are boxes that suffered some minor damage during the milling, but since the box is still 100% functional and 100% beautiful, theres no reason for them to keep sitting in my office. I'll post them at the bottom of this listing.

Please contact me via email for questions and purchase. flygrain@gmail.com

Im going to number these boxes. Simply specify which number you would like to purchase.

These first two are 3x5" African Zebrawood. This is some of the hardest, most amazing wood Ive ever worked with. The grain has a wicked holographic flash when you move it. They both have my highest grade rippled cork inserts.

$75 each

Box #1

3x5" Marblewood. This is a spectacular S. American wood that looks like a cross between Zebrawood and Bamboo. Bar none the hardest wood I work with. Its unbelievable density finishes as smooth as, well... Marble! :) This one also has my highest grade, Cherry burl cork inserts $75
