Michael's Paradise Box

[SteveNelson46]

I made this for my daughter's birthday using Aspire Version 8. The original design is by Michael Tyler and is intended for owners of Aspire to help learn the program. I modified the original v-carve project by converting it to 3D, adding a tray and a 3D name on the inside of the top.. It was quite a challenge and it is not mine to sell or give away so I can't share the patterns.

Really nice Steve, what kind of wood ? The finish and how smooth and shinny It is, outstanding. Any one would like to have that box on a table ! Bea..u...ti...ful...!

Thank you.

The wood is Walnut and I finished it with one coat of lacquer sanding sealer and 3 coats of MacLac lacquer sprayed on with a HVLP spray gun and hand rubbed with 0000 steel wool between each coat.

A unique gift that will be treasured for years to come. Like the way you placed her name on the lid of the box.
