Made from curly maple and cherry.

Here is a short video of it in use:

I'm new to video stuff so if it doesn't work I'm sorry.

What do you think?
Thanks ~Mike

Another amazing piece- very nice craftsmanship and I love your wood choices (is that quilted maple and cherry?)

Would love to have the pattern if you are sharing. I think I'd try doing most of it with the CW

Fantastic piece Mike. I love the woods. Awesome design all the way around. Looks like you have quite the shop and a full spectrum of skills, from lath to cabinetry. I'm impressed!

Love the gumball machine.

Very well done Sir.

Like the mix of the two different woods.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the kind words.

I didn't really have much of a pattern, kind of just rough drew it up and a few patterns I made up in coreldraw. A few changes from the drawing, used 1/8" tempered glass, so side boards wound up 2-7/8" (¾" back board between side boards 1/8" glass leaving 2" inside for drop boards). If I built this again I would double the number of inside drop boards and reduce the angle to 5° instead of the 17° I used.
