I'm getting ready to build a few more boxes, and bought this leopard wood a while back (can you say fancy lacewood???), and will use this wood for the sides of at least one box. In most of my box designs, I will use a contrasting or complimentary wood for the box top.
These are very large boxes, or cases. Typically 6+ inches tall, 12-16 inches wide. I've attached a few examples. One has a bubinga top with cherry sides, the other has zebra wood top with walnut sides....
Just looking for some suggestions on what you guys would consider a good wood to use for the top that would look good with the leopard wood sides..... Any ideas?
Thanks,
Gary
