Title: Bandy Boxes
Post by: Inchlaggan on August 03, 2012, 12:12:21 PM
Taking inspiration from our most regular catches, some fly boxes have been made up.

Most of the fittings arrived yesterday, allowing final construction this morning.

The foam for the lining is out of stock at GAC but due soon. The finish is natural beeswax, but I am doing a trial on some varnished ones.
Clockwise from top left they are-
1) Pine and Oak

2) Mahogany and Cherry

Whilst the base is the walnut in the burr form.
