Our first project for the Mastery Program at the Northwest Woodworking Studio is a sushi box based upon a design Gary Rogowski published in Fine Woodworking magazine. With my usual abundance of enthusiasm, I jumped right in with six original designs attempting to nail the perfect form, wood selection and pull. These are my first attempts. They are all for sale – if you are interested please let me know and I’ll set your choice aside for you. Otherwise, they are destined for a local gallery here in Portland and they price will reflect the markup. I think I need some better photography equipment; perhaps the sale of these will help finance a proper set of photography lights with reflectors and a professional backdrop.
