Yesterday I started building a Tea box I designed and made years ago. The box is made out of Mahogany. The box is joined with dovetails and sits on a nest to elevate it in both stature and design. It has four compartments, one to hold a tea pot, two for the cups and a storage area for loose tea.
Here is a picture of the original box and the new in the process. I spent most of yesterday milling stock and cutting dovetails. It is always a humbling experience to chop out dovetails by hand.
