Guitar Pick box: band saw box

Click on images to see a larger version.

Here's a tiny band saw box made from Rosewood. It measures 2 x 2 x 3/4 inches. It has a brass hinge pin, and the lid is friction fitted (no hardware other than the hinge pin), the lid snaps closed. This is made from one solid piece of wood, so all the grain is in line front, back and sides. It's been sanded to 400 grit. It is finished with boiled linseed oil and a final coat of Museum Wax.
