Just a box that I made as a Christmas present for someone.  Twas a lot of fun.  The tray does not come out due to the angle in the sides of the box, however it slides all too well on the polished bloodwood runners.

I just posted a maple box, too. Wish I could find some maple like you did. I sure chose a great way to highlight the curly quality of the wood. Love it!
