Prize-Winning Woodworking Project

won first prize in an international "Youth Only Wood Art" competition held in Ontario, Canada.
The wooden box is constructed entirely of wood--teak and oak. The corners are dovetail joints, and the top is inlaid.
No metal fasteners are used anywhere in the construction--even the hinges are made completely of wood.
Wood Arts Teacher John Kelley is shown here with Joshua. Below are two pictures of Joshua's latest project, still under construction--an inlaid box featuring a completely functional lock and key set made entirely of wood.
This is another project by one of Mr. Kelley's students--this "intarsia" project features over 800 pieces of walnut, teak, cherry, oak, and maple with no stains used.
