Striped box

Slats from an outdoor dining table, jointed into boards for a box with contrasting light-coloured wood strips.

Unfortunately, I didn't pay quite enough attention to detail, as the jointed boards had subtly different widths meaning that the light strips don't meet up exactly on one corner.

Also, the top strip is a different colour wood than the bottom one, but that isn't clear and it just looks like it's dirty.
