Steve Good Nativity box
« on: December 07, 2019, 08:40:42 am »
Made my first one many months ago and entered it in too the Northeast Arkansas Fair and won first place , received a 8 piece order and just got them finished for Christmas presents for a Customer . Used  1/8" Baltic Birch Plywood and 1/4" Walnut material for the top and base of this project  . Don't let this project fool you in making  multiples it is a lot of work . It's 7 layers to glue together and your cuts will need to be  Percise  if not they'll be more sanding involved . These have  several layers of lacquer finish with several sandings in between coats .
Usually busier than a cat in a sand box

Nice, Marshall!

And you're right, the little scenes are big work!  I made a couple last year.  Painted the last layer dark blue so it would appear the whole scene against a night sky on one of them.   

Congrats on your ribbon!
