A box using recycled teak and walnut, along with maple. The sides are fabricated using contrasting sections of teak and maple, and the lid and bottom panel are of black walnut. I found the teak at a local business that re-purposes wood from demolished houses and the walnut is from a tree the city cut down in our neighborhood. The city forester was good enough to let me have a few sections of the tree as it came down.
