004 - Medusa's box

Medusa is a character in the Greek mythology. Briefly, she was transformed into a monster by Athena, who was jealous of her beauty. She had snaked for hair, and was so hideous that anybody who stared at her was turned to stone instantly. She has been represented countless times through history in diverse types of ornamentation, starting with the Greeks and Romans.

The pattern of Medussa's box is printed to make the box with 4 mm wood, but of course it can be resized at will. This table gives the dimensions of the box depending on the wood thickness you use:

Height Diameter
3/16 in. wood 5.4 in. 12.4 in.
1/4 in. wood 7.2 in. 16.5 in.
4 mm wood 11.5 cm 26.5 cm
5 mm wood 14.4 cm 33 cm
6 mm wood 17.3 cm 40 cm

The pattern is computer made, which provides total precision, and nicely printed for convenient scrolling. Please write me to [email protected] to buy this pattern or for any questions.
