really hard to screwup!

Love the old Douglas fir bench.. and of course your box.. Nice job
matching grain on the corner.. What a nice piece of cherry to work with..!
Gosh you have to finish the inside too though.. I've taken a liking to
finishing insides with 1 lb cut of shellac. Doesn't leave a residual smell
like many other finishes do.. Looks like someone is going to get a very
special Christmas present..

That sweet Clifton plane by the way doesn't go unnoticed. I've never
gotten my hands on one, but they sure look beautiful and well made in
pictures.

it is a wonderful plane, truly a joy to use....but I confess you can make a
wooden smoother that ( after the learning curve ) performs as well as any
high end smoothing plane...

I also caught a lot of heck for posting a picture of the plane sole down on
the bench....it was kinda funny....
