Steve, what can I say ... Yew nailed this one, such a nice box, form and grain match too.
Only thing .. perhaps the knob could have been larger and a little more detailed.
Cheers David

Yep, totally agree. Was going to turn it off completely but decided to keep it (it wasn't planned at all).

Well, I like the knob....it'll do what it needs to do and doesn't distract from the box. Really like it.

As a functional box it is great. personally I would have cut in at the base of the knob but at the end of the day we are talking design and everyone has a diffenrent opinion.

As Pete says the knob could have used a little definition and depending upon the fit tot he box, possible a little larger to enable it to be gripped better, but a lovely shaped little box.
