Making things for my wife is always motivation to get onto the lathe. She liked the small lidded box I made for her from reclaimed bluegum, so I wanted to try something slightly different - a multi-level box for her birthday. I had taken a stack of log pieces to work from a tulip tree that we took down at home years ago. This piece has been sitting in the workshop all this time so was very dry and had developed some spalting from it's time in the yard and from being stacked in the corner of the shop. The fit of the lid and top level are a little loose, but overall I love the pattern of the spalting, especially the "heart" on one side. It was finished with carnuba wax.
