Sean gave away some walnut burl veneer during his Veneered Box guild project and I was lucky enough to be one of the recipients. I've finally gotten around to using it in a project.

This is a relatively small box, the overall dimensions are 4 3/4" x 2 3/8" x 2 3/8".

The sides are 3/8" thick walnut, the lid is 3/8" thick tiger maple, and the bottom is 1/4" birch plywood.

I cut a 1/4" groove for the bottom panel and a rebate for the lid. The basic construction is simple mitered corners. I used Tightbond hide glue for the veneer work and the box construction.
