Man it looks like the grand canyon from 40000ft. Crazy patterns in there.

I LOVE IT! If you only knew how much time I've already spent finding different things in that pattern you'd probably stage an intervention. Some main sights from a pow-wow with coworkers have been: two different versions of a viking warrior (i'm from Minnesota), a Dragonfish and a devil-monkey. Anyone have anything else?!
Thanks for the update Ed... I love watching this thing as it progresses. It looks awesome!
Randy

I know I had posted some pics of this along the way... but, I just finished her up today and thought I would post the final pics.....
Bird's Eye Maple & Macassar Ebony
30" x 14" x 9" (more like 12" counting legs & drawer)
540 Count
Two way mirror/cigar band lid
Hidden Drawer - sort of disappears in to the front molding....
The BOTL that owns this humidor told me a very touching story that involved his father..... so, it was decided to name this humidor... "My Father"
Enjoy.....

Ed, my first official post on this forum. My friend, you are one of the most talented people I have ever met. You took my ideas and made them a reality. This humidor definitely has a story both from my end and yours.
Now get that thing shipped over!! Thanks again my friend!!

Sorry folks.... I've been grinding away in the shop.... getting caught up on a bunch of things.... I had cut my thumb on the table saw a little while back and it put me behind a bit....
That, coupled with 100 degree - 95% humidity..... I just haven't taken many pictures and stuff....
It's all good... moving along - should be back to normal soon.....

Wow. I almost wish I hadn't given up cigars for pipes after seeing this post. Can you make a smoker's cabinet with pipe rests? Who am I kidding... of course you can!
Beautiful work. The lacewood and ebony combination blew me away!

Here's another fresh off the bench....
Bird's Eye Maple & Walnut....

Tried a little something different with the lid on this one.... I think I like it!
This little piece of "Americana" will soon be sitting in it's new home in Singapore... The BOTL that owns it, happens to be on vacation in the US and plans on stopping by the shop TODAY to pick it up!

Wow those are great, I love the tray systems. I would imagine something like this is out of my price range. Beautiful work!
