Another strange request we received was a lady who wanted  a birth box made for her grandson.          Not knowing what this was we asked the question. Apparently it's a storage box for keepsakes in the child’s early years. It may contain the first tooth lost, first lock of hair, favourite toy etc.etc. She asked if we could make it in the shape of a treasure chest to the photos supplied. Mark Smith had just finished making a finger jointing jig so he volunteered to have a go to see how his invention worked. It was a tedious task but very pleasing to see how it turned out.

    Great job Mark.                

 We know who to nominate next time.
