Carved Oak Boxes with Peter Follansbee
Carved oak boxes, a standard item in 17th-century New England homes, fit well in modern ones too. This video covers the layout, carving and construction used in two versions: one box fastened with iron nails, the other with wooden pins and glue. One box features wooden hinges, the other, blacksmith-made iron hinges. The larger “desk” box is fitted with lidded tills inside, along with a gallery of drawers.

So nice to see a quality video of Peter's work. My wife is Linda Savell Stanley and her 10th great grandfather is John Savell, who Peter models his green building of Bible boxes and Chests. Amazing that ge keeps this beautiful technique alive. We have seen several examples of J Savell's work in NYC and at Aetna's HQ.

The final quote. I felt it.
